- |||||||||| Protective effect of RAGE inhibitor compound A on emphysema () - Nov 5, 2024 - Abstract #APSR2024APSR_8;
These findings show that inhibiting RAGE in alveolar epithelial cells suppresses lung injury and emphysema by inhibiting oxidative stress-induced inflammation and MMPs and promoting alveolar epithelial cell proliferation. The interruption of DAMP-RAGE interaction through CA offers a promising therapeutic strategy for the alleviation of emphysema.

The well-known importance of age and the progeroid effect of APOE4 on AD highlight the potential to use geroscience approaches in the prevention and treatment of AD. These findings underscore the critical role of AGEs in age-related renal dysfunction and highlight the therapeutic potential of aminoguanidine in mitigating fibrosis and senescence, offering prospective avenues for combating age-associated renal ailments.
- |||||||||| Journal: RAGE mediates hippocampal pericyte responses and neurovascular unit lesions after TBI. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 4, 2024
In contrast, mouse behavioural testing and doublecortin staining indicated that targeting the HMGB1-S100B/RAGE axis after CCI could protect neurological function by reducing pericyte-associated BBB damage. In conclusion, the present study provides experimental evidence for the strong correlation between the pericyte HMGB1-S100B/RAGE axis and NVU damage in the hippocampus at the early stage of TBI and further demonstrates that pericyte RAGE serves as an important target for the protection of neurological function after TBI.

Journal: Involvement of RAGE in radiation-induced acquisition of malignant phenotypes in human glioblastoma cells. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 28, 2024 Both phenotypes were suppressed by specific inhibitors of RAGE (FPS-ZM1 and TTP488) or by knockdown of RAGE...In addition, ?-irradiation-induced phosphorylation of STAT3 was suppressed by RAGE inhibitors, and a STAT3 inhibitor suppressed ?-irradiation-induced enhancement of cell migration, indicating that STAT3 is involved in the migration enhancement downstream of RAGE. Our results suggest that HMGB1-RAGE-STAT3 signaling is involved in radiation-induced enhancement of GBM cell migration, and may contribute to GBM recurrence by promoting metastasis and invasion.

Our study implies that within relatively normal tissue architecture, the distal epithelium in IPF apices is not yet dysregulated. The decline in AGER transcripts in IPF lungs correlated with histological loss of normal architecture and taken together, suggests that epithelial dysfunction occurs after fibrosis has already started.

The intestinal content of asthmatic obese children differentially induced the expression of inflammatory and mitochondrial response genes (Tnf-tumor necrosis factor, Cd14, Muc13-mucin 13, Tff2-Trefoil factor 2 and Tff3, Cldn1-claudin 1 and 5, Reg3g-regenerating family member 3 gamma, mt-Nd1-NADH dehydrogenase 1 and 6, and mt-Cyb-mitochondrial cytochrome b) via the RAGE-advanced glycosylation end product-specific receptor, NF-?B-nuclear factor kappa b and AKT kinase signal transduction pathways. Fecal homogenates from asthmatic normal-weight and obese children induce a differential phenotype in intestinal organoids, in which the presence of obesity plays a major role.
