Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Zhongshan Hospital Fudan University, Shanghai, People's Republic of China.

Objective: Melanoma is a skin tumor that poses a serious threat to human health. Our study explores the effectiveness and safety of curcumin in the treatment of melanoma based on animal models, and providing evidence-based medical evidence for curcumin in the treatment of malignant melanoma.

Methods: The study collected all randomized controlled trial data from the establishment of the database to October 2023 of curcumin for the treatment of melanoma in mice by searching PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library.

Background The endothelium is essential for maintaining vascular physiological homeostasis and the endothelial injury leads to the neointimal hyperplasia because of the excessive proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells. Endothelial Foxp1 (forkhead box P1) has been shown to control endothelial cell (EC) proliferation and migration in vitro. However, whether EC-Foxp1 participates in neointimal formation in vivo is not clear.

Article Synopsis
  • Atrial fibrillation (AF) patients have a higher chance of forming blood clots, and a study found that low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels can predict this risk.
  • The research followed AF patients for 26 months, dividing them into low-risk and high-risk groups based on their CHADSVASc score to see how LDL-C affected their likelihood of thrombosis.
  • Results showed that lower LDL-C levels reduced the risk of blood clots in both groups, but it was more important for patients in the low-risk group, suggesting they should keep their LDL-C levels even lower to prevent thrombosis.

Background: Macrophages can polarize to M2 phenotype to decrease inflammation and encourage tissue repair. Nonetheless, its role in sepsis-induced acute lung injury and its effect on endothelial cells (ECs) regeneration remains unknown. The aim of the current study was to explore the impact of M2 macrophages on pulmonary ECs proliferation in sepsis-induced acute lung injury.
