To our knowledge, all these findings provide for the first time an initial understanding of BKA on innate immunity, which might be helpful for further investigation on BKA immunotoxicity.Lenvatinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) approved for the treatment of resistant differentiated thyroid cancer, advanced renal cell carcinoma, unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, and endometrial carcinoma. Although it is successful in cancer treatment, it can cause life-threatening side effects such as cardiotoxicity. The molecular mechanism of cardiotoxicity caused by lenvatinib is not fully known. In this study, the molecular mechanism of lenvatinib's cardiotoxicity was investigated focusing on mitochondrial toxicity in the H9c2 cardiomyoblastic cell line. Lenvatinib inhibited cell viability at 48 and 72 h exposure with three selected concentrations (1.25 μM, 5 μM and 10 μM); and inhibited intracellular ATP after 72 h exposure compared to the control group. Mitochondrial membrane potential was decreased after 48 h and did not show significant changes after 72 h exposure. Evaluated with real-time PCR, mitochondrial dynamics (Mfn1, Mfn2, OPA1, DRP1, Fis1) expression levels after lenvatinib treatment significantly changed. Lenvatinib triggered the tendency from fusion to fission in mitochondria after 48 h exposure, and increased both fusion and fission after 72 h. The mtDNA ratio increased after 48 h and decreased after 72 h. ASK1, JNK and AMPKα2 increased. UCP2 showed downregulation, SOD2 level showed upregulation and Cat levels decreased after drug treatment. Nrf1 and Nrf2 also changed concentration-dependently. Protein carbonyl levels increased significantly after lenvatinib treatments indicating oxidative stress. The protein levels of the electron transport chain complexes, LONP1, UCP2, and P21 showed significant differences after lenvatinib treatment. The outcome of our study is expected to be a contribution to the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of TKI-induced cardiotoxicity.NLRP3 inflammasome is involved in several chronic inflammatory diseases. The inflammatory effect of the NLRP3 inflammasome is executed through IL-1β and IL-18. Therefore, IL-1β is one of the primary targets in chronic inflammatory conditions. However, current treatment regimens are dependent on anti- IL-1β biologicals. The therapies targeting IL-1β through inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome are thus being actively explored. We identified safranal, a small molecule responsible for the essence of saffron as a potential inhibitor of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Safranal significantly suppressed the release of IL-1β from ATP stimulated J774A.1 and bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) by regulating CASP1 and CASP8 dependent cleavage of pro-IL-1β. Safranal markedly suppressed the expression of NLRP3 and its ATPase activity. Safranal treatment enhanced the expression of NRF2, whereas, si-RNA mediated silencing of Nrf2 abrogated the anti-NLRP3 effect of safranal. Furthermore, safranal inhibited ASC oligomerization and formation of ASC specks. Safranal also displayed anti-NLRP3 activity in multiple mice models. Treatment of animals with safranal reduced the production of IL-1β in ATP elicited peritoneal inflammation, MSU induced air pouch inflammation, and MSU injected foot paw edema in mice. Thus, our data projects safranal as a potential preclinical drug candidate against NLRP3 inflammasome triggered chronic inflammation.Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is among the most prevalent cancers of the head and neck. This study revealed that isoorientin attenuates OSCC cell stemness and epithelial-mesenchymal transition potential through the inhibition of JAK/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and Wnt/β-catenin signaling in cell lines. Our findings indicated that isoorientin is a potential inhibitor of β-catenin/STAT3 in vitro and in vivo. We analyzed possible synergism between isoorientin and cisplatin in OSCC. A sulforhodamine B assay, colony formation assay, tumorsphere-formation assay, and Wnt reporter activity assay were used for determining cell invasion, cell migration, drug cytotoxicity, and cell viability with potential molecular mechanisms in vitro. Debio 0123 concentration Isoorientin reduced the expression of p-STAT3, β-catenin, and p-GSK3 as well as downstream effectors TCF1/TCF7 and LEF1 and significantly reduced β-catenin colocalization in the nucleus. Isoorientin markedly strengthened the cytotoxic effects of cisplatin against SAS and SCC-25. Therefore, combining isoorientin and cisplatin treatments can potentially improve the anticancer effect of cisplatin. Isoorientin inhibited the tumorigenicity and growth of OSCC through the abrogation of Wnt/β-catenin/STAT3 signaling in vivo. Thus, isoorientin disrupted the β-catenin signaling pathway through the inactivation of STAT3 signaling. In conclusion, targeting OSCC-SC-mediated stemness with isoorientin to eradicate OSCC-SCs may be an effective strategy for preventing relapse and metastasis of OSCC and providing long-term survival benefits.In 2018, cardiovascular society cholesterol guidelines recommended the use of coronary artery calcium to guide statin therapy in patients 40-79 years of age who are at intermediate risk by multiple risk factor equations (ie, estimated 10-year risk for atherosclerotic disease of 7.5%-19.9% but in whom statin benefit is uncertain). Many such patients have no coronary calcium and remain at less then 5% risk over the next decade; hence, statin therapy can be delayed until a repeat calcium scan is conducted. Exceptions include patients with severe hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, and a strong family history of atherosclerotic disease. If coronary calcium equals 1-99 Agatston units, the 10-year risk is borderline (5% to less then 7.5%) and statin therapy is optional pending a repeat scan. If coronary calcium equals 100-299 Agatston units, the patient is clearly statin eligible (7.5% to less then 20% 10-year risk). And finally, if coronary calcium is ≥300 Agatston units, a patient is at high risk and is a candidate for high-intensity statins. Risk factor analysis combined judiciously with coronary calcium scanning offers the strongest evidence-based approach to use of statins in primary prevention.
