Summary: The study suggests that colon fluid resuscitation may help in early controlled fluid resuscitation for severe acute pancreatitis patients, reducing the rate of mechanical ventilation and incidence of hypernatremia, but there is no significant difference in prognosis compared to conventional fluid resuscitation. Further prospective research is needed to evaluate the impact of colon fluid resuscitation on SAP patients.

Summary: Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a life-threatening abdominal disease. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) play an important role in the occurrence and development of SAP, as well as its fatal complications. This review provides insights into the involvement of NETs in SAP and suggests targeting NETs as a promising strategy in SAP treatment.

Summary: Obesity may worsen the severity of pancreatitis by increasing serum lipase, non-esterified fatty acids, and myeloperoxidase levels, activating M1 polarization in adipose tissue macrophages, and elevating pro-inflammatory cytokines. Moreover, serum exosomes may modulate the expression of inflammatory factors in THP-1 cells, affecting the development of pancreatitis. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between obesity and pancreatitis and the underlying mechanisms.

Summary: This study found that Dexmedetomidine can attenuate pancreatic injury, inhibit cell necroptosis and apoptosis, and alleviate oxidative stress caused by severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). It can also mitigate the structural damage to mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum caused by SAP, and regulate the inflammatory response and tissue damage through inhibiting specific pathways and neutrophil extracellular trap formation. These findings provide experimental evidence for the future clinical application of Dexmedetomidine in SAP treatment.

Summary: This study systematically describes the close relationship between P3H1 and various tumors, especially hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC). P3H1 expression is significantly increased in tumors and is associated with survival and progression in many cancers. Decreasing P3H1 expression can significantly inhibit the proliferation, migration, and invasion of liver cancer cells. Furthermore, high P3H1 expression is also associated with immune cell infiltration and immune treatment efficacy.

Summary: G-proteins, including GNB1, have been shown to play a pro-cancer role in lung cancer and breast cancer, but their function in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unclear. This study found that GNB1 is overexpressed in HCC and its increased expression is associated with poor prognosis. Further experiments revealed that GNB1 enhances cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion, and promotes the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in HCC cells. The oncogenic role of GNB1 was confirmed in a tumor xenograft model and the P38 signaling pathway was found to be important for its function in HCC.
