Aims: The therapeutic efficacy of coronary revascularization is compromised by myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury. Higher levels of circulating arachidonic acid (AA) are reportedly associated with lower risk of cardiovascular disease. The cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway metabolizes AA into prostaglandins (PGs) and the platelet-activating thromboxane A2 (TXA2), which is inhibited by aspirin.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate CTF1 expression in glioma, its relationship to patient prognosis and the tumor immune microenvironment, and effects on glioma phenotypes to identify a new therapeutic target for treating glioma precisely.
Methods: We initially assessed the expression of CTF1, a member of the IL-6 family, in glioma, using bioinformatics tools and publicly available databases. Furthermore, we examined the correlation between CTF1 expression and tumor prognosis, DNA methylation patterns, m6A-related genes, potential biological functions, the immune microenvironment, and genes associated with immune checkpoints.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common chronic autoimmune disease that primarily affects the joints, leading to synovial inflammation and hyperplasia, which subsequently causes joint pain, swelling, and damage. The microenvironment of RA is characterized by hypoxia, high reactive oxygen species (ROS), low pH, and levels of high inflammatory factors. Traditional treatments only partially alleviate symptoms and often cause various adverse reactions with long-term use.

This study investigates the therapeutic effects of recombinant human IL-10 (rhIL-10) administered via aerosol inhalation in acute lung injury (ALI), with a particular focus on neutrophils. It explores how rhIL-10, in the presence of platelets, modulates neutrophil polarization to ameliorate acute lung injury. Initially, the ALI model established in mice demonstrated that aerosol inhalation of rhIL-10 significantly mitigated the cytokine storm in the lungs, reduced pulmonary edema, and alleviated histopathological damage to lung tissue.

Streptococcus pneumoniae (Sp; pneumococcus), the most common agent of community-acquired pneumonia, can spread systemically, particularly in the elderly, highlighting the need for adjunctive therapies. The airway epithelial barrier defends against bacteremia and is dependent upon apical junctional complex (AJC) proteins such as E-cadherin. After mouse lung challenge, pneumolysin (PLY), a key Sp virulence factor, stimulates epithelial secretion of an inflammatory eicosanoid, triggering the infiltration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) that secrete high levels of neutrophil elastase (NE), thus promoting epithelial damage and systemic infection.
