Abstract
Persistent and unresolved inflammation is a common underlying factor observed in several and seemingly unrelated human diseases, including cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Particularly, in atopic conditions, acute inflammatory responses such as those triggered by insect venom, food or drug allergies possess also a life-threatening potential. However, respiratory allergies predominantly exhibit late immune responses associated with chronic inflammation, that can eventually progress into a severe phenotype displaying similar features as those observed in other chronic inflammatory diseases, as is the case of uncontrolled severe asthma. This review aims to explore the different facets and systems involved in chronic allergic inflammation, including processes such as tissue remodelling and immune cell dysregulation, as well as genetic, metabolic and microbiota alterations, which are common to other inflammatory conditions. Our goal here was to deepen on the understanding of an entangled disease as is chronic allergic inflammation and expose potential avenues for the development of better diagnostic and intervention strategies.

Abstract
Atopic dermatitis, commonly referred to as atopic eczema, is a persistent inflammatory skin disorder that predominantly manifests in children but may endure into adulthood. Its clinical management poses challenges due to the absence of a definitive cure, and its prevalence varies across ethnicities, genders, and geographic locations. The epigenetic landscape of AD includes changes in DNA methylation, changes in histone acetylation and methylation, and regulation by non-coding RNAs. These changes affect inflammatory and immune mechanisms, and research has identified AD-specific variations in DNA methylation, particularly in the affected epidermis. Histone modifications, including acetylation, have been associated with the disruption of skin barrier function in AD, suggesting the potential therapeutic benefit of histone deacetylase inhibitors such as belinostat. Furthermore, non-coding RNAs, particularly microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), have been implicated in modulating various cellular processes central to AD pathogenesis. Therapeutic implications in AD include the potential use of DNA methylation inhibitors and histone deacetylase inhibitors to correct aberrant methylation patterns and modulate gene expression related to immune responses and skin barrier functions. Additionally, the emerging role of lncRNAs suggests the possibility of using small interfering RNAs or antisense oligonucleotides to inhibit lncRNAs and adjust their regulatory impact on gene expression. In conclusion, the importance of epigenetic elements in AD is becoming increasingly clear as studies highlight the contribution of DNA methylation, histone modifications and, control by non-coding RNAs to the onset and progression of the disease. Understanding these epigenetic changes provides valuable insights for developing targeted therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the major cancer that affects women all over the world. The awareness over past several decades has led to intensive screening and detection as well as successful treatments. Still, the breast cancer mortality is unacceptable and needs to be urgently addressed. Among many factors, inflammation has often been associated with tumorigenesis, including breast cancer. More than a third of all breast cancer deaths are marked by deregulated inflammation. The exact mechanisms are still not completely known but among the many putative factors, the epigenetic changes, particularly those mediated by non-coding RNAs are fascinating. microRNAs, long non-coding RNAs as well as circular RNAs seem to impact the inflammation in breast cancer which further highlights their important regulatory role in breast cancer pathogenesis. Understanding inflammation in breast cancer and its regulation by non-coding RNAs is the primary objective of this review article. We attempt to provide the most complete information on the topic in hopes of opening new areas of research and discoveries.

Abstract
Atopic dermatitis (AD) poses a significant global health challenge, characterized by dysregulated inflammation and apoptotic processes. This study explores the therapeutic efficacy of hinokitiol, employing a comprehensive in vivo and in vitro approach. Assessment of inflammation-related markers in the animal model included observation of physical appearance, Western blotting, ELISA, and H&E staining. Additionally, the cell culture model enabled the evaluation of apoptosis and ROS levels using MTT assay, crystal violet staining, Western blot, and DCFDA assays. The results revealed hinokitiol's proficiency in ameliorating ear and skin morphology in the DNCB-induced AD model, mediated through the TLR4/MyD88 pathway. Notably, hinokitiol intervention led to a reduction in both M1 and M2 macrophage phenotypes. In vitro investigations demonstrated hinokitiol's ability to enhance cell viability and morphology under TNF-α and IFN-γ induction. Mechanistically, hinokitiol exhibited regulatory effects on apoptosis-related proteins, including Bax, Cytochrome c, Caspase-3, and PARP, thereby averting cellular damage. These findings suggest that hinokitiol is a promising natural compound with significant potential for alleviating inflammation and apoptosis in AD, indicating potential avenues for future therapeutic developments.
