Rosmarinic acid inhibits nicotine-induced C-reactive protein generation by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation in smooth muscle cells.
TL;DR: A protective role of RA is suggested in nicotine‐induced atherosclerosis by inhibiting the ROS–NLRP3 inflammasome–CRP axial, and RA therefore represented a potential effective therapeutic approach to atheros sclerosis, in particular for those who smoke.

Tumor necrosis factor-α and diabetic retinopathy: Review and meta-analysis.
TL;DR: A meta-analysis indicated that the level of TNF-α in DR patients was significantly different from that in the healthy controls, so T NF-α represents a candidate biomarker for DR.

CHCHD2 promotes hepatocellular carcinoma and indicates poor prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma patients.
TL;DR: It is found that CHCHD2 was upregulated in HCC tissues, and high CHCHd2 expression was associated with poor differentiation, lymph node metastasis, local tissue invasion, high TNM grade of HCC and poor patient survival.
Autophagy activation and the mechanism of retinal microvascular endothelial cells in hypoxia
TL;DR: In murine RMECs autophagy is activated under hypoxia possibly through activation of the AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway.

Association between ICAM-1 level and diabetic retinopathy: a review and meta-analysis
TL;DR: The results of this current meta-analysis indicated that the increased level of ICAM-1 generally exists in the patients with DR and it may associated with the severity of DR, however, large-scale and high-quality studies are required to confirm this finding in the future.
