Summary: Isoliquiritigenin (ISL) improves acute liver failure by ameliorating liver histopathological changes, enhancing anti-oxidative stress ability, reducing inflammation, apoptosis, and inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome through activating the PGC-1 alpha/Nrf2 pathway.

Summary: The study found that spermidine can suppress the activation of macrophages induced by LPS, possibly by activating Nrf-2 in macrophages. In addition, spermidine also blunted LPS-induced proinflammatory response.

Summary: The study reveals the potential beneficial effects of pectolinarigenin (PEC) in macrophage cells and DSS-induced colitis model. PEC pretreatment inhibits NF-kappa B activation and increases Nrf2 protein expression. Moreover, PEC regulates the NF-kappa B/Nrf2 pathway, reducing inflammation and pathological damages in the colon. PEC may be a promising therapeutic agent for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.

Summary: Melatonin, a natural compound with powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, was found to suppress oxidative stress in dendritic cells (DCs) in an acute lung injury (ALI) model. The inhibition of oxidative stress was achieved through the regulation of antioxidant enzymes and the Nrf2/HO-1 axis. These findings suggest that melatonin could be a promising strategy for ALI treatment.

Summary: The combined exposure of LPS and glyphosate resulted in more severe inflammatory responses in the respiratory system of mice compared to individual exposure, but the inflammation decreased after 10 days, with leukocyte infiltration persisting. Glyphosate exposure modified LPS-induced inflammatory responses, and TLR-2 might play a crucial role in modulating the inflammatory response.

Summary: Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a valuable tool in dermatology for treating inflammatory skin conditions using low levels of light, but the physiological pathways responsible for its anti-inflammatory effect have not been well defined. This study found that PBM activated the Nrf2 pathway to control inflammation and played a key role in reducing inflammatory response. The findings support the role of PBM in skin immunomodulation and suggest it as a promising alternative or complementary therapeutic approach for skin-related inflammatory diseases.

Summary: This study aims to explore the therapeutic utility of GSK3 inhibition in multimodal disease modification and emphasizes the difference in therapeutic value between selective isoform inhibition. The results reveal that GSK3 beta-selective inhibition has superior anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative efficacy compared to GSK3 alpha-selective and non-selective pan-inhibition.

Summary: This study found that METTL3 depletion increases the expression of proinflammatory cytokines in macrophages and promotes LPS-induced inflammatory response. This effect may be achieved by increasing the expression and stability of the NOD1 pathway, which is regulated by YTHDF1 and YTHDF2.

Summary: The study isolated sargachromenol (SC) from Sargassum horneri and demonstrated its anti-inflammatory effect on LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages. SC increased cell viability by reducing NO and ROS production, decreased inflammatory cytokines and mediators, suppressed NF kappa B and MAPK signaling, and activated Nrf2/HO-1 signaling. The antioxidant capacity of SC contributes to its anti-inflammatory effect, suggesting its potential application in nutraceutical and pharmaceutical sectors.
