Immunostimulatory and Immunomodulatory Effects of Vitamin B12 Derivatives on Macrophages Through the Modulation of JNK Pathway.

Cell Biochem Biophys

September 2025

Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Istinye University, Istanbul, 34003, Türkiye, Turkey.

Vitamin B12 is a vital water-soluble vitamin containing a central cobalt atom within its corrin ring structure. It exists in several derivatives, among which methylcobalamin (MeCbl) and adenosylcobalamin (AdCbl) are the biologically active forms that serve as cofactors in essential enzymatic reactions. Although the neurological and hematological consequences of vitamin B12 deficiency have been extensively studied, its role in immune regulation remains less well understood.

Hic-5 deficiency attenuates MAFLD by inhibiting neutrophils migration via the CXCL1-CXCR2 axis.

J Gastroenterol

Department of General Surgery (Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery), Department of Biliary-Pancreatic Center, The Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University, 25 Taiping Street, Jiangyang District, Luzhou City, 646000, Sichuan Province, China.

Background And Aims: Inflammatory cell infiltration in the liver is a hallmark of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). However, the pathological events that trigger the infiltration of inflammatory cells to mediate MAFLD pathogenesis remains poorly understood. This study aims to investigate the function and mechanism of Hic-5 on hepatic inflammation of MAFLD.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer therapy but are increasingly linked to immune-related kidney injury (irKI). This study presents the first bibliometric analysis of irKI research (2000-2025), aiming to identify key trends, mechanistic insights, and pharmacological risk factors. We analyzed 2,179 publications to understand the evolution of irKI research, focusing on areas like T cell-mediated tubular injury, immune system-driven inflammation, and changes in metabolism.

Cardiovascular diseases are increasingly recognized as chronic disorders driven by a complex interplay between inflammation and fibrosis. In this review, we elucidate emerging mechanisms that govern the transition from acute inflammation to pathological fibrosis, with particular focus on cellular crosstalk between neutrophils, macrophages, fibroblasts, and myofibroblasts. We explore how dysregulated immune responses and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling sustain a pathogenic feedback loop, promoting myocardial stiffening and adverse cardiac remodeling.

Fluoropyrimidines are a class of chemotherapy drugs used to treat various solid tumors. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) an antimetabolite in the fluoropyrimidine family, which has shown remarkable efficacy against a variety of solid tumors, is a crucial medication in the treatment of cancer. However, severe organ toxicities frequently restrict its therapeutic potential.
