We also found that the ferroptosis inhibitor Deferoxamine (DFO), Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) or the Acsl4 inhibitor Rosiglitazone (Rosi) inhibited ovarian aging and granulosa cell damage in vivo and in vitro. Inhibiting ferroptosis or Acsl4 can alleviate ovarian aging. Our research has revealed a new mechanism of ovarian aging and provided potential new targets for alleviating it.

We describe a case of a 48-year-old woman who had been treated with pembrolizumab for lymph node-positive breast cancer. Investigations including a low leptin level and loss of adiposity on whole body composition analysis were consistent with this diagnosis. A trial of pioglitazone was associated with an improvement in insulin resistance and hypertriglyceridemia, although no improvement in her facial lipodystrophy was observed.

EA can ameliorate energy metabolism disorders in T2DM rats, reduce ectopic lipid accumulation in skeletal muscle, and alleviate inflammatory responses, which may be related to the regulation of the PPAR-γ/NF-κB signaling pathway.

This multi-omics study integrates multi-omics data to elucidate the immune-metabolic heterogeneity in CRC, establishing a precise prognostic model and providing bioinformatic evidence for key roles of ANGPTL4, FABP4, and RBP7 in the tumor microenvironment, thereby suggesting novel strategies to overcome immunotherapy resistance.

Several pharmacological agents including incretin-based strategies, FGF21 analogues and the panPPAR agonist lanifibranor target the interface of MASLD and T2DM and have thereby shown promise to improve MASH and associated liver fibrosis. In light of the evident close multilevel links between MASLD and T2DM, care development efforts for MASLD in guidelines, local protocols and implementation strategies should aim to involve hepatologists, diabetologists, PCPs and their affiliated care teams in a joint effort to address the growing burden of fibrotic MASLD.

EA ameliorated myocardial IR in a rat model of T2DM and positively impacted TNNT2 and BNP levels, as well as phosphorylation status and mRNA expression of several genes involved in the insulin signaling pathway. Our findings underscore the potential of EA to modulate multiple therapeutic targets in the treatment of myocardial IR. If these effects can be replicated clinically, EA may represent a promising non-pharmacological option for the management of cardiometabolic risks associated with diabetes.

Cytotoxicity varied by compound, while the PPARγ agonist pioglitazone and the PPARα agonist fenofibrate were preferentially active in CTC lines, DG172 hydrochloride was selective for pleural effusion-derived lines, while rosiglitazone maleate, cloxiquine, and agrimol B showed no selectivity. These findings support PPARs as clinically relevant targets in SCLC, with PPAR-directed agents showing cytotoxic effects comparable to those reported in other malignancies. Such agents may aid SCLC treatment and help delineate biological differences between CTCs and resident tumor cells.
