The human‐specific noncoding RNA RP11‐424G14.1 functions at the intersection of sexually dimorphic pathways in inflammation, senescence, and metabolism by Kameron Kennicott, Yun Liang

“…Conversely, in female keratinocytes, IGFBP3 is the top gene repressed by the X‐linked long noncoding RNA XIST, suggesting a central role of IGFBP3 in mediating sexual dimorphism. Knockdown of RP11‐424G14.1 or IGFBP3 in male keratinocytes inhibits cellular senescence, consistent with increased longevity in females. …”

The link between spreading depolarization and innate immunity in the central nervous system by Kadir Oguzhan Soylu, Muge Yemisci, Hulya Karatas

“…Research has established a clear link between SD and the activation of pro-inflammatory pathways, particularly through the release of cytokines like interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α, and the involvement of inflammatory mediators such as cyclooxygenase-2 and high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1). …”

Kounis Syndrome Secondary to Medicine-Induced Hypersensitivity by Parackrama Karunathilake, Udaya Ralapanawa, Thilak Jayalath, Shamali Abeyagunawardena

“…Kounis syndrome is the concurrence of an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) caused by coronary vasospasms, acute myocardial infarctions, or stent thromboses in case of allergic or hypersensitivity reactions. Kounis syndrome is mediated by mast cells that interact with macrophages and T-lymphocytes, causing degranulation and inflammation with cytokine release. …”

Posttranscriptional Suppression of Lipopolysaccharide-Stimulated Inflammatory Responses by Macrophages in Middle-Aged Mice: A Possible Role for Eukaryotic Initiation Factor 2α by Ken Shirato, Kazuhiko Imaizumi

“…Given that a reduced rate of protein synthesis is a common age-related biochemical change, which is partially mediated by increased phosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor-2α (eIF-2α), we investigated the mechanism responsible for the deterioration of macrophage inflammatory responses, focusing specifically on the age-related biochemical changes in middle-aged mice. …”
