Introduction: In chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), a complex pathophysiology results from varied pro-inflammatory stimuli but is consistently characterized by classic cellular, molecular, and microbial alterations. Normally, endogenous specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPM) actively promote resolution of inflammation through numerous pathways, including those involved in host antimicrobial defense. However, these pathways appear to be disrupted in CRS.
Areas Covered: This paper describes features of CRS in the context of chronic tissue inflammation, and potential mechanisms by which specialized pro-resolving mediators promote active resolution of tissue inflammation.
Expert Opinion: Temporal phases of resolution must be tightly regulated to successfully resolve inflammation in CRS while preserving tissue functions such as barrier maintenance and special sensory function. Dysregulation of SPM enzymatic pathways has been recently shown in CRS and is associated with disease phenotypes and microbial colonization patterns. Current research in animal models and in vitro human cell culture, as well as human dietary studies, demonstrate relevant changes in cell signaling with lipid mediator bioavailability. Further clinical research may provide insight into the therapeutic value of this approach in CRS.

Objective: This preclinical study investigates a novel targeted collagen type IV nanoparticle formulation, Ac2-26 coated with chitosan and pectin ((pc)-Col-IV-Ac2-26-NPs), to promote anastomotic healing in a model of acute Crohn's disease (CD) with distal colo-colonic anastomosis, using intraperitoneal, oral and rectal delivery to optimize therapeutic effects while minimizing systemic immunosuppression.
Summary Background Data: Surgery remains critical for CD-patients due to irreversible tissue damage, with anti-inflammatory therapies increasing the risk of postoperative complications like anastomotic leaks.
Method: Female BALB/c mice (n=152) with CD-like colitis (2,4,6-Trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid) were randomized to receive (pc)-Col-IV-Ac2-26-NPs or scrambled NPs intraperitoneally, orally, or rectally every 3.

Unlabelled: Galectin-1 is a protein from the lectin family that is capable of recognizing β-galactosides, and it is involved in modulating the inflammatory response and tissue homeostasis. However, the presence and distribution of galectin-1 in pulp tissue, as well as its role in pulp inflammation, are poorly understood. Although galectin-1 has been reported to be present in healthy and necrotic pulp tissue at the proteomic level, the modifications and implications of these changes in galectin in tissues with irreversible pulpitis and infiltrating macrophages that could help clarify the inflammatory phenomenon have not yet been described.

This study adopted a three-dimensional "effect-dose-mechanism" evaluation system to screen the optimal regimen of Yuxuebi Tablets(YXB) combined with ibuprofen(IBU) for chronic musculoskeletal pain(CMP) intervention and elucidate its pharmacological mechanism, so as to provide a scientific basis for the clinical application of the regimen. The experiments were conducted using 8-week-old ICR mice, which were randomly divided into sham operation(sham) group, model(CFA) group, IBU group, YXB group, stasis paralysis tablets combined with ibuprofen low-dose group(IBU-L-YXB), stasis paralysis combined with ibuprofen high-dose group(IBU-H-YXB), stasis paralysis tablets combined with ibuprofen high-dose with ibuprofen discontinuation on the 10th day of administration(IBU-10-YXB), and stasis paralysis tablets combined with ibuprofen high-dose with ibuprofen halving on the 10th day of administration(IBU-1/2-YXB) group. An animal model was established using the CFA plantar injection method.

Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a potentially life-threatening inflammatory disorder of the exocrine pancreas, characterized by massive cell death, which drives the progression and resolution of the disease. However, little is known about the key regulators in the tissue microenvironment that mediate tissue damage and repair. In this study, we discovered that AXL and MERTK in macrophages are responsible for tissue repair and pancreatic inflammation following SAP.
