AI Article Synopsis

  • Keratinocytes are negatively affected by airborne particulate matter (PM), leading to skin barrier issues and inflammation.
  • The study investigated the effects of 7S MaR1, a compound derived from fatty acids, on skin inflammation and oxidative stress caused by PM10 in human skin cells.
  • Results showed that 7S MaR1 helps reduce harmful ROS (reactive oxygen species) and inflammatory markers, suggesting its potential role in alleviating skin damage from particulate matter exposure.

Article Abstract

Keratinocytes are susceptible to airborne particulate matter (PM) exposure, resulting in human skin barrier dysfunction. Therefore, it is important to find useful reagents to resolve skin damages caused by PM. Here, we explored the protective effect of 7S MaR1, a specialized pro-resolving mediator derived from docosahexaenoic acid, on skin inflammation and the oxidative stress induced by PM with a diameter 10 μm or less (PM10) in human keratinocyte HaCaT cells. Interestingly, PM10-induced ROS generation was modulated by 7S MaR1 via the recovery of ROS scavenger genes. 7S MaR1 reduced PM10-induced IL-6 expression via modulating the p38/ERK/NF-κB signaling pathways. These results demonstrate that PM induces inflammatory cytokines, which can lead to skin diseases. In addition, 7S MaR1 can resolve inflammation caused by PM-induced oxidative stress and inflammatory cytokines. [BMB Reports 2024; 57(11): 490-496].

Background/objectives: Obesity is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as omega-3 (n-3), are essential in anti-inflammatory processes. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a dietary intervention along with supplementation of 1.

How to Deal with Pulpitis: An Overview of New Approaches.

Dent J (Basel)

January 2025

Department of Conservative Dentistry with Endodontics, Faculty of Medical Sciences in Zabrze, Medical University of Silesia, 41-902 Bytom, Poland.

Traditional root canal therapy (RCT) effectively removes diseased or necrotic pulp tissue and replaces it with inorganic materials. Regenerative endodontics is an alternative to conventional RCT by using biologically based approaches to restore the pulp-dentin complex. This review explores emerging techniques, including autogenic and allogenic pulp transplantation, platelet-rich fibrin, human amniotic membrane scaffolds, specialized pro-resolving mediators, nanofibrous and bioceramic scaffolds, injectable hydrogels, dentin matrix proteins, and cell-homing strategies.

Cardiotoxicity, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), hypertension, hepatotoxicity, and respiratory problems occurring several months to several years post-chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy are increasingly documented by scientists and clinicians. Anthracyclines, for example, were discovered in the late 1960s to be dose-dependently linked to induced cardiotoxicity, which frequently resulted in cardiomyopathy and heart failure. Most of those changes have also been associated with aging.

Specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators: a key player in resolving inflammation in autoimmune diseases.

Sci Bull (Beijing)

January 2025

Department of Neurology, Neuroscience Center, The First Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun 130000, China. Electronic address:

Uncontrolled hyperactivation of the immune system is the central mechanism underlying the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. Timely control of the inflammatory response is essential to prevent inflammation progression and organ damage. Specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators (SPMs) are autacoid molecules derived from essential polyunsaturated fatty acids during acute inflammatory responses.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) causes ischemic damage and cardiac remodeling that ultimately progresses into ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM). Coronary revascularization reduces morbidity and mortality from an MI, however, reperfusion also induces oxidative stress that drives cardiac myocyte (CM) dysfunction and ICM. Oxidative stress in CMs leads to reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and mitochondrial damage.
