Article Abstract
Mesalazine is a standard therapeutic agent for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases. A rare case of mesalazine-induced airway obstruction documented by pulmonary function testing is reported herein. The patient had Crohn's disease and was treated with mesalazine; she subsequently developed a high fever, cough, and chest pain with centrilobular nodular shadows on chest computed tomography (CT). After cessation of mesalazine, the abnormal CT findings as well as the decreased forced expiratory volume in 1 second improved. Based on these findings, pulmonary function testing appears to be a useful tool, even in the acute phase, along with chest CT in drug-induced lung diseases.

Background: Vascular changes are observed in children with cystic fibrosis (cwCF), and gender-specific differences may impact arterial stiffness. We aimed to compare arterial stiffness and clinical parameters based on gender in cwCF and to determine the factors affecting arterial stiffness in cwCF.
Methods: Fifty-eight cwCF were included.

Acute lung injury (ALI) is characterized by the excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which triggers a severe inflammatory cascade and the destruction of the alveolar-capillary barrier, leading to respiratory failure and life-threatening outcomes. Considering the limitations and adverse effects associated with current therapeutic interventions, developing effective and safe strategies that target the complex pathophysiological mechanisms of ALI is crucial for improving patient outcomes. Herein, we developed an inhalable, multifunctional nanotherapeutic (MSCNVs@CAT) by encapsulating catalase (CAT) in mesenchymal-stem-cell-derived nanovesicles (MSCNVs).

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of gene expression in cancer biology, yet their spatial dynamics within tumor microenvironments (TMEs) remain underexplored due to technical limitations in current spatial transcriptomics (ST) technologies. To address this gap, we present STmiR, a novel XGBoost-based framework for spatially resolved miRNA activity prediction. STmiR integrates bulk RNA-seq data (TCGA and CCLE) with spatial transcriptomics profiles to model nonlinear miRNA-mRNA interactions, achieving high predictive accuracy (Spearman's ρ > 0.

Heart failure (HF) and lung cancer (LC) often coexist, yet their shared molecular mechanisms are unclear. We analyzed transcriptome data from the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database (GSE141910, GSE57338) to identify 346 HF‑related differentially expressed genes (DEGs), then combined weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) pinpointed 70 hub candidates. Further screening of these 70 hub candidates in TCGA lung cancer cohorts via LASSO, Random Forest, and multivariate Cox regression suggested CYP4B1 as the only independent prognostic marker.

Background: Disulfidptosis, a novel cellular death manner, has yet to be fully explored within the context of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). This study aims to identify genes implicated in PAH that are involved in disulfidptosis.
Method: Based on data from the GEO database, this study employed co-expression analysis, Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis (WGCNA), hub gene identification, and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) to uncover genes associated with PAH and disulfidptosis.
