Abstract
The protease activated receptor 2 (Par2) plays a pivotal role in various damage models, influencing injury, proliferation, inflammation, and regeneration. Despite extensive studies, its binary roles- EITHER aggravating injury or promoting recovery-make a conclusive translational decision on its modulation strategy elusive. Analyzing two liver regeneration models, autoimmune hepatitis and direct hepatic damage, we discovered Par2's outcome depends on the injury's nature. In immune-mediated injury, Par2 exacerbates damage, while in direct tissue injury, it promotes regeneration. Subsequently, we evaluated the clinical significance of this finding by investigating Par2's expression in the context of autoimmune diabetes. We found that the absence of Par2 in all lymphocytes provided full protection against the autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing β-cells in mice, whereas the introduction of a β-cell-specific Par2 null mutation accelerated the onset of autoimmune diabetes. This pattern led us to hypothesize whether these observations are universal. A comprehensive review of recent Par2 publications across tissues and systems confirms the claim drafted above: Par2's initial activation in the immune system aggravates inflammation, hindering recovery, whereas its primary activation in the damaged tissue fosters regeneration. As a membrane-anchored receptor, Par2 emerges as an attractive drug target. Our findings highlight a crucial translational modulation strategy in regenerative medicine based on injury type.

Abstract
Hirudin is one of the specific inhibitors of thrombin, which has been confirmed to have strong bioactivities, including inhibiting tumors. However, the function and mechanism of hirudin and protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR-1) in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) have not been clear. Detecting the expression PAR-1 in DLBCL tissues and cells by RT-qPCR and IHC. Transfected sh-NC, sh-PAR-1, or pcDNA3.1-PAR-1 in DLBCL cells or processed DLBCL cells through added thrombin, Vorapaxar, Recombinant hirudin (RH), or Na2S2O4 and co-culture with EA.hy926. And built DLBCL mice observed tumor growth. Detecting the expression of related genes by RT-qPCR, Western blot, IHC, and immunofluorescence, measured the cellular hypoxia with Hypoxyprobe-1 Kit, and estimated the cell inflammatory factors, proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis by ELISA, CCK-8, flow cytometry, wound-healing and Transwell. Co-immunoprecipitation and pull-down measurement were used to verify the relationship. PAR-1 was highly expressed in DLBCL tissues and cells, especially in SUDHL2. Na2S2O4 induced SUDHL2 hypoxia, and PAR-1 did not influence thrombin-activated hypoxia. PAR-1 could promote SUDHL2 proliferation, migration, and invasion, and it was unrelated to cellular hypoxia. PAR-1 promoted proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of EA.hy926 or SUDHL2 through up-regulation vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). RH inhibited tumor growth, cell proliferation, and migration, promoted apoptosis of DLBCL, and inhibited angiogenesis by down-regulating PAR-1-VEGF. RH inhibits proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of DLBCL cells by down-regulating PAR-1-VEGF.

Abstract
Venous thromboembolism, encompassing acute pulmonary embolism (APE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT), is a potentially fatal disease with complex pathophysiology. Traditionally, the Virchow triad provided a framework for understanding the pathogenic contributors to thrombus formation, which include endothelial dysfunction, alterations in blood flow and blood hypercoagulability. In the last years, it has become apparent that immunity plays a central role in thrombosis, interacting with classical prothrombotic mechanisms, oxidative stress and vascular factors. Thrombosis amplifies inflammation, and exaggerated inflammatory processes can trigger thrombosis mainly due to the activation of leukocytes, platelets, and endothelial cells. APE-related endothelium injury is a major trigger for immune system activation. Endothelium is also a key component mediating inflammatory reaction and it is relevant to maintain vascular permeability. Exaggerated right ventricular wall stress and overload, with coexisting systemic hypotension and hypoxemia, result in myocardial injury and necrosis. Hypoxia, tissue factor activation and cytokine storm are engaged in the thrombo-inflammatory processes. Thrombus development is characterized by inflammatory state vascular wall caused mainly by an early extravasation of leukocytes and intense selectins and cytokines production. Nevertheless, immunity of DVT is well described, little is known about potential chemokine and cellular differences between thrombus that develops in the vein and thrombus that detaches and lodges in the pulmonary circulation being a cause of APE. There is a paucity of data considering inflammatory state in the pulmonary artery wall during an acute episode of pulmonary embolism. The main aim of this review is to summarize the knowledge of immunity in acute phase of pulmonary embolism in experimental models.

Inhibition of YTHDF1 prevents hypoxia-induced pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell proliferation by regulating Foxm1 translation in an m6A-dependent manner. Exp Cell Res 2023; 424:113505. [PMID: 36736607 DOI: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2023.113505] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2022] [Revised: 01/29/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a chronic disease characterized by pulmonary vascular remodeling. It refers to the abnormal proliferation of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), and hypoxia is an important risk factor for this progression. The present study aims to investigate the role of YTHDF1 in the regulation of hypoxic PASMC proliferation and the underlying mechanism. Human PASMCs were transfected with si-YTHDF1/2/3 followed by treatment of hypoxia, and the PASMC proliferation and Foxm1 expression were detected. Through RNA pull-down, RNA immunoprecipitation, and protein synthesis assay, the mechanism of YTHDF1 regulating Foxm1 was explored. Next, Foxm1 was inhibited by thiostrepton, and cell proliferation was detected. In vivo, mice received a tail vein injection of adenovirus containing si-YTHDF1 and were exposed to hypoxia treatment. Pulmonary vascular changes, right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP), and genes involving proliferation were analyzed. YTHDF1 silencing reduced more hypoxic PASMC proliferation and Foxm1 protein level than YTHDF2/3 silencing. Mechanical results showed that YTHDF1 interacted with Foxm1 mRNA and up-regulated Foxm1 protein level by enhancing the translation efficiency in an m6A-dependent manner. Furthermore, YTHDF1 facilitated hypoxic PASMC proliferation and proliferation marker expressions through up-regulation of Foxm1 in an m6A-dependent manner. In vivo, the YTHDF1 silencing alleviated pulmonary vascular changes and fibrosis, reduced RVSP, inhibited the interaction of YTHDF1 and Foxm1, and reduced proliferation marker levels, as compared to the PAH group. In conclusion, YTHDF1 silencing inhibits hypoxic PASMC proliferation by regulating Foxm1 translation in an m6A-dependent manner.

Abstract
Pulmonary hypertension is one of the difficult situations to treat. Complex pathophysiology, association of the multiple comorbidities make clinical scenario challenging. Recently it is being shown that patients who had recovered from coronavirus disease infection, are at risk of developing pulmonary hypertension. Studies on animals have been going on to find out newer treatment options. There are recent advancements in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension. Role of anticoagulation, recombinant fusion proteins, stem cell therapy are emerging as therapeutic options for affected patients. SGLT2 inhibitors have potential to have beneficial effects on pulmonary hypertension. Apart from the medical managements, advanced interventions are also getting popular. In this review article, the authors have discussed pathophysiology, recent advancement of treatments including coronavirus disease patients, and future aspect of managing pulmonary hypertension. We have highlighted treatment options for patients with sleep apnea, interstitial lung disease to discuss the challenges and possible options to manage those patients.
