Design, synthesis, and in vitro/in vivo biological evaluation of Artesunate-Ebselen derivatives: GPX4-targeted ferroptosis induction and synergistic antitumor immune activation in colorectal cancer. (PubMed, Bioorg Chem)
These findings collectively indicate that compound 5k exerts synergistic anti-CRC efficacy by triggering ferroptosis and activating antitumor immunity. Thus, compound 5k holds considerable promise as a lead ferroptosis inducer for the development of novel CRC therapeutic strategies.

Severe Myocarditis after Nivolumab and Ipilimumab in a Patient with Microsatellite Instability-High Gastric Adenocarcinoma: A Case Report. (PubMed, Niger J Clin Pract)
The patient was managed with corticosteroids, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and intravenous immunoglobulin G (IVIG), but later developed supraventricular tachycardia and deep vein thrombosis. This report emphasizes the need to enhance recognition of immune-related toxicities within non-oncology specialties to support prompt interdisciplinary collaboration and appropriate patient management. Additionally, patients can develop myocarditis-related complications even when clinically stable or near the end of treatment, underscoring the need for close and ongoing monitoring.

Anti-Psoriatic Effects of J2H-1802, a Mycophenolate Mofetil and 5-Aminosalicylic Acid Hybrid, in an Imiquimod-Induced Psoriasis-like Mouse Model. (PubMed, Pharmaceutics)
In addition, J2H-1802 significantly reduced serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels and suppressed pro-inflammatory cytokine expression, including IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17, and TNF-α, in psoriatic skin. J2H-1802 alleviates both local and systemic inflammatory features of psoriasis, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic candidate for targeting IL-23/Th17-mediated inflammatory pathways.

Regulation of basal and tumour necrosis factor α-induced fibroblast gene expression by peptidylarginine deiminase 2. (PubMed, J Physiol)
Fibroblast-derived PAD2 can citrullinate extracellular matrix proteins (ECMPs), whereas the citrullination status of ECMPs reciprocally influences the behaviour of fibroblasts...PAD2 maintains the expression of Podoplanin and Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 1B (TNFRSF1b) in fibroblasts across multiple organs but promotes basal and TNFα-induced IL-6 expression in lung and synovial fibroblasts. These results suggest a novel pathogenic role for fibroblast-derived PAD2 in RA and offer a plausible explanation for the unique tissue tropism of RA.

Prospective study of patients with immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced hepatitis; characterization of liver injury, outcome of therapy, and management of steroid-unresponsive and steroid-dependent hepatitis. (PubMed, J Immunother Cancer)
Nearly half of patients developing ir-hepatitis had an inadequate response to steroids and needed MMF as a secondary immunosuppressant. Patients with mixed DILI were more likely to respond to steroids, while alcohol consumption was associated with inadequate steroid response. Immune analyses showed high T cell infiltration in the liver among patients with ir-hepatitis.
