Autoimmune diseases pose significant challenges due to the high risks associated with abnormal immune responses to self-antigens and the limitations of broad-spectrum immunosuppressants. Current therapeutic approaches primarily rely on immunosuppressive drugs, yet their non-specificity and side effects urge researchers to explore novel targets and the advancement of precision medicine. Recent advances in targeted protein degradation (TPD) technologies, including PROTAC, MGD and LYTAC, offer therapeutic potential by precisely eliminating pathogenic proteins.

Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK4) is a promising therapeutic target for inflammatory diseases. However, solely inhibiting IRAK4 kinase activity fails to fully block inflammatory signaling, resulting in limited efficacy. Herein, we describe the design and synthesis of novel IRAK4 degraders based on a proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC) strategy.

Excessive pulmonary inflammation in acute lung injury (ALI) results in high patient mortality. Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK4) is a potential therapeutic target for inflammatory diseases. However, due to the dual functionality of IRAK4 as both an active kinase and a scaffolding protein, inhibiting its kinase activity yield moderate anti-inflammatory results.

Intestinal homeostasis depends critically on the dynamic interplay between gut microbiota, epithelial barriers, and host immunity, dysregulation of this triad can initiate inflammatory cascades. Ferulic acid and its derivative N-Feruloylserotonin demonstrate significant anti-inflammatory activity, though their intestinal protective effects and mechanisms require further elucidation. Therefore, this study examined how these compounds mitigate lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute inflammation through integrated modulation of the gut microbiome, serum metabolome, and transcriptional networks.

FLT3 kinase inhibitors have been advanced to the clinic as targeted treatments for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). These inhibitors can produce promising initial responses, but patients often relapse with treatment-resistant disease. A significant factor contributing to relapse involves adaptive signaling through an alternative pathway mediated by IRAK1 and IRAK4 kinases.
