NF-κB/AP-1-Targeted Inhibition of Macrophage-Mediated Inflammatory Responses by Depigmenting Compound AP736 Derived from Natural 1,3-Diphenylpropane Skeleton by Van Thai Ha, Heung Soo Beak, Eunji Kim, Kwang-Soo Baek, Muhammad Jahangir Hossen, Woo Seok Yang, Yong Kim, Jun Ho Kim, Sungjae Yang, Jeong-Hwan Kim, Yung Hyup Joo, Chang Seok Lee, Joonho Choi, Hong-Ju Shin, Sungyoul Hong, Song Seok Shin, Jae Youl Cho

“…AP736 was identified as an antimelanogenic drug that can be used for the prevention of melasma, freckles, and dark spots in skin by acting as a suppressor of melanin synthesis and tyrosinase expression. Since macrophage-mediated inflammatory responses are critical for skin health, here we investigated the potential anti-inflammatory activity of AP736. …”

Low-Dose Decitabine Assists Human Umbilical Cord-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Protecting β Cells via the Modulation of the Macrophage Phenotype in Type 2 Diabetic Mice by Jing Xue, Yu Cheng, Haojie Hao, Jieqing Gao, Yaqi Yin, Songyan Yu, Junyan Zou, Jiejie Liu, Qi Zhang, Yiming Mu

“…Progressive β-cell dysfunction, a major characteristic of type 2 diabetes (T2D), is closely related to the infiltration of inflammatory macrophages within islets. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been identified to alleviate β-cell dysfunction by modulating macrophage phenotype in T2D, but the restoration of β-cells by a single MSC infusion is relatively transient. …”

TNF-α Enhances the Therapeutic Effects of MenSC-Derived Small Extracellular Vesicles on Inflammatory Bowel Disease through Macrophage Polarization by miR-24-3p by Huikang Xu, Jiamin Fu, Lijun Chen, Sining Zhou, Yangxin Fang, Qi Zhang, Xin Chen, Li Yuan, Yifei Li, Zhenyu Xu, Charlie Xiang

“…MiR-24-3p was proved to target and downregulate interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1) expression in the murine colon and then promoted the polarization of M2 macrophages. The polarization of M2 macrophages in colonic tissues then reduced the damage caused by hyperinflammation.…”
