Background: Recently, the number of patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its more advanced condition, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), has been increasing. These patients are at a higher risk of cardiovascular events and thromboembolism. However, the direct impact of high-fat diet (HFD), a cause of MASLD, on liver coagulation function is not well understood.

Tuberculosis (TB) is the first infectious disease to be screened-out from specified pathogen-free cynomolgus macaques (Macaca fascicularis; Mf) using in human pharmaceutical testing. Being in either latent or active stage after exposure to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC), the monkey gamma-interferon release assay (mIGRA) was previously introduced for early TB detection. However, a notable incidence of indeterminate results was observed.

Although interferon-induced transmembrane 1 (IFITM1) is known for its crucial role in antiviral immunity, its involvement in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) remains largely unexplored. In this study, we observed that IFITM1 expression is markedly upregulated in a Concanavalin A (ConA)-induced AIH model, with particularly high and markedly elevated expression in natural killer T (NKT) cells. To further understand the role of IFITM1, we examined the responses of IFITM1 mice in a model of ConA-induced liver injury.

The complex distribution of functional groups in carbohydrates, coupled with their strong solvation in water, makes them challenging targets for synthetic receptors. Despite extensive research into various molecular frameworks, most synthetic carbohydrate receptors have exhibited low affinities, and their interactions with sugars in aqueous environments remain poorly understood. In this work, we present a simple pyridinium-based hydrogen-bonding receptor derived from a subtle structural modification of a well-known tetralactam macrocycle.

Background: Herbacetin, a flavonol abundant in traditional medicines, is documented as an anti-inflammatory agent. However, information regarding its attributes on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory immunopathies has not been delineated yet. The present study aimed to comprehend herbacetin effects on LPS-induced aspects of unwarranted, non-resolving inflammation, particularly via targeting the vicious circle of oxi-inflammatory stress, autophagy-apoptosis, macrophages polarization, impaired inflammasome activation, and inflammatory cascades.
