has traditionally been used as an herbal medicine due to its characteristics that protect against inflammation, hypertension, and mutagenesis. However, the effect of (CSE) on allergic rhinitis (AR) and its underlying mechanisms have yet to be thoroughly investigated. The current study explored the likely effect of CSE on AR in an ovalbumin (OVA)-induced AR mouse model. To this end, OVA-specific immunoglobulins, nasal symptoms, cytokine production, the infiltration of inflammatory cells, and nasal histopathology were assessed to determine the role of CSE against AR. The supplementation of CSE was found to suppress OVA-specific IgE, while OVA-specific IgG2a was increased in the serum. Further, CSE ameliorated the production of T helper type 2 (Th2) cytokines whereas it increased Th1 cytokine levels in nasal lavage fluid. Moreover, the CSE treatment group exhibited significant inhibition of IL-33/ST2 signaling. Subsequently, CES reversed the OVA-induced enhancement of epithelial permeability and upregulated E-cadherin, thus indicating that CES plays a protective role on epithelial barrier integrity. Altogether, the oral administration of CSE effectively controlled allergic response by restricting the buildup of inflammatory cells, enhancing nasal and lung histopathological traits, and regulating cytokines associated with inflammation. Collectively, the results show that the supplementation of CSE at different doses effectively regulated AR, thus suggesting the therapeutic efficiency of CSE in suppressing airway diseases.

Discovery of novel PDGFR inhibitors targeting non-small cell lung cancer using a multistep machine learning assisted hybrid virtual screening approach.

Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is a formidable global health challenge, responsible for the majority of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptor (PDGFR) has emerged as a promising therapeutic target in NSCLC, given its crucial involvement in cell growth, proliferation, angiogenesis, and tumor progression. Among PDGFR inhibitors, avapritinib has garnered attention due to its selective activity against mutant forms of PDGFR, particularly PDGFRA D842V and KIT exon 17 D816V, linked to resistance against conventional tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Use of benzodiazepines in patients with status epilepticus requiring second-line antiseizure medication treatment.

Department of Neurology, Vaasa Central Hospital, Vaasa, Finland.
Background: Status epilepticus (SE) is a life-threatening state that needs rapid and adequate treatment. Benzodiazepines (BZD) are used as a first-line treatment for SE, and if the desired effect is not achieved, second-line antiseizure medications are used.
Objective: To investigate whether the treatment with BZDs is performed adequately in patients with different subtypes of SE requiring second-line ASM treatment and, if not, to identify the factors influencing the suboptimal treatment.

Article Synopsis
- The study explored how human vocal fold fibroblasts (hVFF) interact with macrophages in the presence of cigarette smoke extract (CSE) and vibration, focusing on vocal fold inflammation.
- Researchers cultured hVFF with CSE, applying either static or dynamic conditions, and then measured various mRNA and protein levels to assess inflammation.
- Findings revealed that vibration may reduce CSE-induced inflammatory responses in hVFF, suggesting potential mechanisms to address voice disorders linked to smoking-related inflammation.

The emergence of New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (NDM-1) poses a significant threat to the clinical application of antibiotics, as it possesses the ability to hydrolyze nearly all β-lactam antibiotics. Regrettably, there are currently no clinical drugs targeting NDM-1, making it imperative to develop highly potent and minimally toxic NDM-1 inhibitors. Herein, a series of molecular Trojan horses targeting NDM-1 were synthesized by introducing ebselen into 7-aminocephalosporanic acid derivatives via a C-Se bond.
