Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a central neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive cognitive decline and memory impairment in clinical. Currently, there are no effective treatments for AD. In recent years, a variety of therapeutic approaches from different perspectives have been explored to treat AD. Although the drug therapies targeted at the clearance of amyloid β-protein (Aβ) had made a breakthrough in clinical trials, there were associated with adverse events. Neuroinflammation plays a crucial role in the onset and progression of AD. Continuous neuroinflammatory was considered to be the third major pathological feature of AD, which could promote the formation of extracellular amyloid plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles. At the same time, these toxic substances could accelerate the development of neuroinflammation, form a vicious cycle, and exacerbate disease progression. Reducing neuroinflammation could break the feedback loop pattern between neuroinflammation, Aβ plaque deposition and Tau tangles, which might be an effective therapeutic strategy for treating AD. Traditional Chinese herbs such as Polygonum multiflorum and Curcuma were utilized in the treatment of AD due to their ability to mitigate neuroinflammation. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen and indomethacin had been shown to reduce the level of inflammasomes in the body, and taking these drugs was associated with a low incidence of AD. Biosynthetic nanomaterials loaded with oxytocin were demonstrated to have the capability to anti-inflammatory and penetrate the blood-brain barrier effectively, and they played an anti-inflammatory role via sustained-releasing oxytocin in the brain. Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells could reduce neuroinflammation and inhibit the activation of microglia. The secretion of mesenchymal stem cells could not only improve neuroinflammation, but also exert a multi-target comprehensive therapeutic effect, making it potentially more suitable for the treatment of AD. Enhancing the level of TREM2 in microglial cells using gene editing technologies, or application of TREM2 antibodies such as Ab-T1, hT2AB could improve microglial cell function and reduce the level of neuroinflammation, which might be a potential treatment for AD. Probiotic therapy, fecal flora transplantation, antibiotic therapy, and dietary intervention could reshape the composition of the gut microbiota and alleviate neuroinflammation through the gut-brain axis. However, the drugs of sodium oligomannose remain controversial. Both exercise intervention and electromagnetic intervention had the potential to attenuate neuroinflammation, thereby delaying AD process. This article focuses on the role of drug therapy, gene therapy, stem cell therapy, gut microbiota therapy, exercise intervention, and brain stimulation in improving neuroinflammation in recent years, aiming to provide a novel insight for the treatment of AD by intervening neuroinflammation in the future.

In recent years, the prevalence of diabetes has continued to rise, with diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) being the most common form. T2DM is characterized by chronic low-grade inflammation and disruptions in insulin metabolism. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is a key pattern recognition receptor that, upon activation, upregulates pro-inflammatory cytokines via the nuclear factor κB (NF‑κB) pathway, thereby contributing to the pathogenesis of T2DM. Peripheral 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), primarily synthesized by enterochromaffin (EC) cells in the gut, interacts with 5-hydroxytryptamine receptors (5-HTRs) in key insulin-target tissues, including the liver, adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle. This interaction influences hepatic gluconeogenesis, fat mobilization, and the browning of white adipose tissue. Elevated peripheral 5-HT levels may disrupt glucose and lipid metabolism, thereby contributing to the onset and progression of T2DM. Within mitochondria, 5-HT undergoes degradation and inactivation through the enzymatic action of monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A), leading to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Excessive ROS production and accumulation can induce oxidative stress, which may further contribute to the pathogenesis of T2DM. Platelets serve as the primary reservoir for5-HT in the bloodstream. The activation of the TLR4 signaling pathway on the platelet surface, coupled with reduced expression of the 5-HT transporter on the cell membrane, leads to elevated serum 5-HT levels, potentially accelerating the progression of T2DM. Therefore, inhibition of TLR4 and reduction of peripheral 5-HT levels could represent promising therapeutic strategies for T2DM. This review explores the synthesis, transport, and metabolism of peripheral 5-HT, as well as its role in TLR4-mediated T2DM, with the aim of providing novel insights into the clinical diagnosis, treatment, and evaluation of T2DM.

The innate immune system detects cellular stressors and microbial infections, activating programmed cell death (PCD) pathways to eliminate intracellular pathogens and maintain homeostasis. Among these pathways, pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis represent the most characteristic forms of PCD. Although initially regarded as mechanistically distinct, emerging research has revealed significant crosstalk among their signaling cascades. Consequently, the concept of PANoptosis has been proposed—an inflammatory cell death pathway driven by caspases and receptor-interacting protein kinases (RIPKs), and regulated by the PANoptosome, which integrates key features of pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis. The core mechanism of PANoptosis involves the assembly and activation of the PANoptosome, a macromolecular complex composed of three structural components: sensor proteins, adaptor proteins, and effector proteins. Sensors detect upstream stimuli and transmit signals downstream, recruiting critical molecules via adaptors to form a molecular scaffold. This scaffold activates effectors, triggering intracellular signaling cascades that culminate in PANoptosis. The PANoptosome is regulated by upstream molecules such as interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1), transforming growth factor beta-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), and adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 1 (ADAR1), which function as molecular switches to control PANoptosis. Targeting these switches represents a promising therapeutic strategy. Furthermore, PANoptosis is influenced by organelle functions, including those of the mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and lysosomes, highlighting organelle-targeted interventions as effective regulatory approaches. Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), the leading global cause of morbidity and mortality, are profoundly impacted by PCD. Extensive crosstalk among multiple cell death pathways in CVDs suggests a complex regulatory network. As a novel cell death modality bridging pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis, PANoptosis offers fresh insights into the complexity of cell death and provides innovative strategies for CVD treatment. This review summarizes current evidence linking PANoptosis to various CVDs, including myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury, myocardial infarction, heart failure, arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy, cardiotoxic injury, atherosclerosis, abdominal aortic aneurysm, thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection, and vascular toxic injury, thereby providing critical clinical insights into CVD pathophysiology. However, the current understanding of PANoptosis in CVDs remains incomplete. First, while PANoptosis in cardiomyocytes and vascular smooth muscle cells has been implicated in CVD pathogenesis, its role in other cell types—such as vascular endothelial cells and immune cells (e.g., macrophages)—warrants further investigation. Second, although pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are known to activate the PANoptosome in infectious diseases, the stimuli driving PANoptosis in CVDs remain poorly defined. Additionally, methodological challenges persist in identifying PANoptosome assembly in CVDs and in establishing reliable PANoptosis models. Beyond the diseases discussed, PANoptosis may also play a role in viral myocarditis and diabetic cardiomyopathy, necessitating further exploration. In conclusion, elucidating the role of PANoptosis in CVDs opens new avenues for drug development. Targeting this pathway could yield transformative therapies, addressing unmet clinical needs in cardiovascular medicine.

ObjectiveTo identify the active constituents of Kaixuan Jiedu core prescription （KXJD） and investigate its effective components and therapeutic targets in the treatment of common psoriasis. MethodsUltra-performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry （UPLC-Q-TOF MS） was used to identify and analyze the chemical components of KXJD and its blood-entering chemical components. The chemical components of the single decoction were further identified to clarify the source of the chemical components in KXJD. Then， all identified blood-entering compounds were screened for effective active ingredients through the Swiss ADME database. The active ingredient targets of KXJD were searched on the Swiss Target Prediction platform. The targets of common psoriasis were searched in OMIM， GEO， GeneCards， and DISGNET databases to obtain drug-disease intersection targets. The protein-protein interaction network of intersection targets was constructed using STRING， and then the core blood-entering component-intersection target network of KXJD was constructed. The core target proteins in the network were selected for molecular docking with the core components of KXJD. Small molecules and proteins were pretreated， and appropriate docking sites were selected. AutoDock Vina software was used for continuous local search and repeated iterations to find molecular docking conformations. PyMOL software and LigPlot+ software were used for analysis and visualization. Subsequently， the verification was carried out through animal experiments. SPF-grade male C57 mice were randomly divided into a blank group， a model group， a positive drug methotrexate group， and a KXJD group. In the model group， the methotrexate group， and the KXJD group， imiquimod was applied to the backs of the mice for modeling. The blank group and the model group were administered normal saline by gavage， while the methotrexate group and the KXJD group were respectively administered 1 mg·kg^-1 suspension and 30.42 g·kg^-1 decoction of traditional Chinese medicine by gavage. Five days after administration， the mice were sacrificed， and samples were collected. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe the skin tissue samples of mice， and the effect of KXJD on the pathological manifestations of psoriasis mice was analyzed. The expression areas of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， cyclooxygenase 2 （PTGS2）， interleukin （IL）-1β， and IL-6 in the skin tissue of mice were detected by immunohistochemistry （IHC）. The mRNA expressions of TNF-α， IL-1β， IL-6， and PTGS2 in the skin tissue of mice were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. ResultsIn this study， 208 compounds in KXJD were identified by UPLC-Q-TOF MS， and 44 compounds were detected in serum， including 28 prototype components and 16 metabolites. 12 blood-entering active components were screened， and 1 153 active component targets and 1 076 psoriasis-related targets were identified. Eighty-five targets in the intersection set were drug-disease common targets. PPI network analysis showed that TNF-α， IL-1β， IL-6， PTGS2， and ALB were the key target proteins. The results of molecular docking showed that the binding ability of （+）-hexylphenylglycolic acid to key target proteins such as PTGS2 was stable， and PTGS2 showed high stability with a variety of core compounds. Compared with those in the blank group， the stratum corneum and epidermis in the model group mice were significantly thickened， and the pathological Baker score of the mice's skin in the model group was significantly higher than that of the blank group （P<0.01）. The expression areas of PTGS2， TNF-α， IL-1β， and IL-6 proteins in the skin tissue of the model group mice were significantly increased （P<0.01）， and the expression levels of PTGS2， TNF-α， IL-1β， and IL-6 mRNA in the skin tissue of the model group mice were significantly elevated （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the pathological Baker scores of the methotrexate group and the KXJD group were both decreased （P<0.01）， and the expression areas in the skin tissue of the methotrexate group and the KXJD group were significantly reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The expression levels of PTGS2， TNF-α， IL-1β， and IL-6 mRNA in the skin tissue of the methotrexate group and the KXJD group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. ConclusionKXJD can effectively improve the skin lesions of psoriasis model mice and reduce the expression of TNF-α， IL-1β， IL-6， and PTGS2 in the skin tissue of psoriasis model mice. PTGS2 has a stable binding ability with a variety of compounds in the decoction， which may be a key target for the treatment of psoriasis. The compound （+）-hexylphenylglycolic acid may play a key role.

MethodsPsoriasis microarray data from GEO were analyzed to identify differentially expressed genes （DEGs）. Intersection with a ferroptosis gene set yielded psoriasis ferroptosis-related genes （FRGs）， which underwent correlation， consensus clustering， enrichment， and immune infiltration analyses. Core diagnostic FRGs （Hub-FRGs） were identified using random forest （RF）， support vector machine （SVM）， LASSO regression， Nomogram， and ROC analyses. In vivo， imiquimod （5% cream） induced psoriasis in mice （except controls）. Drug treatment groups received respective doses， while control and model groups received saline via daily gavage for 7 days. Back skin changes were recorded and PASI scored. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining assessed histopathology. The levels of ferrous ion （Fe²⁺）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， 4-hydroxynonenal （4-HNE） and free fatty acid （FFA） in skin tissue were detected. The level of reactive oxygen species （ROS） in skin tissue was detected by immunofluorescence. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of ChaC glutathione-specific γ-glutamyl transferase 1 （CHAC1）， arachidonic acid 12-lipoxygenase β （ALOX12B）， trimotif protein 21 （TRIM21）， proliferation marker （Ki67） and nuclear transcription factor-κB （NF-κB） protein. ResultsAnalysis of GSE30999 identified 2 100 DEGs and 24 FRGs. Gene Ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） enrichment revealed 1 000 biological functions and 75 pathways. After cluster analysis， combined with three machine learning algorithms， Nomogram and ROC curve analysis， the core Hub-FRGs （CHAC1， ALOX12 B， TRIM21） were obtained. Immunoinfiltration showed inactive memory CD4⁺T cells and activated dendritic cells abundance significantly correlated with Hub-FRGs. In vivo， model group vs. control showed significantly increased PASI/Baker scores （P<0.05）， epidermal hyperkeratosis， inflammatory infiltration， and elevated levels of Fe²⁺， MDA， 4-HNE， FFA， ROS， CHAC1， ALOX12B， TRIM21， Ki67， and NF-κB （P<0.05）. Drug groups vs. model group exhibited significantly reduced scores （P<0.05）， alleviated skin lesions， and decreased levels of Fe²⁺， MDA， 4-HNE， FFA， ROS， Hub-FRGs， Ki67， and NF-κB （P<0.05）. ConclusionKaixuan Jiedu core prescription can significantly improve the skin pathological injury of psoriasis mice， showing good therapeutic and repair effects， and its mechanism may be related to regulating the expression of ferroptosis genes CHAC1， ALOX12B and TRIM21， which are closely related to the pathogenesis of psoriasis.

BACKGROUND: The transcription factor POU2F1 regulates the expression levels of microRNAs in neoplasia. However, the miR-29b1/a cluster modulated by POU2F1 in gastric cancer (GC) remains unknown. METHODS: Gene expression in GC cells was evaluated using reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (PCR), western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and RNA in situ hybridization. Co-immunoprecipitation was performed to evaluate protein interactions. Transwell migration and invasion assays were performed to investigate the biological behavior of GC cells. MiR-29b1/a cluster promoter analysis and luciferase activity assay for the 3'-UTR study were performed in GC cells. In vivo tumor metastasis was evaluated in nude mice. RESULTS: POU2F1 is overexpressed in GC cell lines and binds to the miR-29b1/a cluster promoter. POU2F1 is upregulated, whereas mature miR-29b-3p and miR-29a-3p are downregulated in GC tissues. POU2F1 promotes GC metastasis by inhibiting miR-29b-3p or miR-29a-3p expression in vitro and in vivo . Furthermore, PIK3R1 and/or PIK3R3 are direct targets of miR-29b-3p and/or miR-29a-3p , and the ectopic expression of PIK3R1 or PIK3R3 reverses the suppressive effect of mature miR-29b-3p and/or miR-29a-3p on GC cell metastasis and invasion. Additionally, the interaction of PIK3R1 with PIK3R3 promotes migration and invasion, and miR-29b-3p , miR-29a-3p , PIK3R1 , and PIK3R3 regulate migration and invasion via the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/Akt/mTOR) pathway in GC cells. In addition, POU2F1 , PIK3R1 , and PIK3R3 expression levels negatively correlated with miR-29b-3p and miR-29a-3p expression levels in GC tissue samples. CONCLUSIONS The POU2F1 - miR-29b-3p / miR-29a-3p-PIK3R1 / PIK3R1 signaling axis regulates tumor progression and may be a promising therapeutic target for GC.

Steroid-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head (SONFH) is a disease characterized by femoral head collapse and local pain caused by excessive use of glucocorticoids. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ) is mainly expressed in adipose tissue. Wnt/β-catenin, AMPK and other related signaling pathways play an important role in regulating adipocyte differentiation, fatty acid uptake and storage. Bone marrow mesenchymal cells (BMSCs) have the ability to differentiate into adipocytes or osteoblasts, and the use of hormones upregulates PPARγ expression, resulting in BMSCs biased towards adipogenic differentiation. The increase of adipocytes affects the blood supply and metabolism of the femoral head, and the decrease of osteoblasts leads to the loss of trabecular bone, which eventually leads to partial or total ischemic necrosis and collapse of the femoral head. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of short non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression by inhibiting the transcription or translation of target genes, thereby affecting cell function and disease progression. Studies have shown that miRNAs affect the progression of SONFH by regulating PPARγ lipid metabolism-related signaling pathways. Therefore, it may be an accurate and feasible SONFH treatment strategy to regulate adipogenic-osteoblast differentiation in BMSCs by targeted intervention of miRNA differential expression to improve lipid metabolism. In this paper, the miRNA-mediated PPARγ-related signaling pathways were classified and summarized to clarify their effects on lipid metabolism in SONFH, providing a theoretical reference for miRNA targeted therapy of SONFH, and then providing scientific evidence for SONFH precision medicine.
