Summary: This study suggests that G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER1) does not play a significant role in cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI), but its deletion exacerbates renal apoptosis and diminishes heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) induction, indicating potentially important cytoprotective and anti-apoptotic actions of GPER1 in AKI.

Summary: The incidence of kidney disease is increasing, posing a significant burden on healthcare systems and underscoring the need for new therapeutic targets. The HO system, specifically HO-1, has shown promise in protecting against various kidney injuries, but despite preclinical data, clinical translation has not yet been achieved. Future research may focus on identifying potential therapeutic interventions targeting HO-1 in kidney diseases.

Summary: In this study, the impact of sinomenine (SIN) on hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury and the related signaling pathway was investigated. The results showed that SIN pretreatment significantly prevented IR-induced liver injury, including decreased levels of liver enzymes, reduced oxidative stress, suppressed inflammatory responses, and attenuated apoptosis. The histopathological changes in the livers of IR rats were also alleviated by SIN pretreatment, and Nrf-2/HO-1 activation was induced. The use of a selective inhibitor for Nrf-2 effectively reversed the effects induced by SIN. These findings suggest that SIN may be a useful therapeutic drug for preventing hepatic IR-induced injury during clinical liver transplantation.

Summary: Heme molecule is essential for oxygen transport, cellular metabolic enzyme activities, and can promote human diseases if dysfunction occurs. It has pro-oxidant properties, inducing cytotoxicity and injury, while also modulating inflammatory and immune system functions. Therapeutic strategies targeting the heme/HO-1 pathway show potential in inflammatory conditions.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of APG on intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IIRI). The results showed that APG could improve intestinal edema and increase Chiu's score. It was found that APG specifically bound to heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) and monoamine oxidase b (MAO-B), and could attenuate ROS generation and Fe2+ accumulation, maintain mitochondria function, and inhibit ferroptosis in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, knocking down HO-1 and MAO-B, as well as using their inhibitors, also had positive effects on intestine and vascular endothelial cells.

Summary: Radiation therapy is an effective treatment for thoracic malignancies, but it can cause radiation-induced lung injury (RILI), including radiation pneumonitis (RP) and radiation pulmonary fibrosis (RPF). The damage to normal lung cells during radiation treatment leads to a pulmonary inflammatory response, resulting in RP and RPF.

Summary: The activation of the inflammasome plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) have been shown to alleviate SLE by suppressing inflammasome activation. This study found that the NLRP3 inflammasome was activated in macrophages from SLE patients and mice, and its activation correlated with disease activity. After MSC transplantation, the severity of SLE was reduced, and NLRP3 inflammasome activation was inhibited. These findings suggest that MSC suppress inflammasome activation and provide a potential therapeutic target for SLE.
