Sixty healthy volunteers served as the control group. Patients were categorized as 90 cases of PLN, and 53 cases of nonproliferative lupus nephritis (nPLN). Ultrasonic viscoelastic imaging was employed to quantitatively analyze kidney cortex elasticity (Emean), viscosity coefficient (Vmean) and dispersion coefficient (Dmean).

Vmean and Dmean were considerably greater in the PLN group than in the nPLN group (<i>p</i> < 0.05).

Moreover, SbS modulated the expression of genes and proteins associated with pyroptosis, collectively suggesting its potential to ameliorate intestinal pyroptosis, potentially via its direct impact on macrophage. Consistently, SbS ameliorated pyroptosis of macrophages in vitro through activating FXR and inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome. However, the therapeutic effect of SbS was reversed by the FXR inhibitor, guggulsterone, resulting in increased levels of pyroptosis-related proteins.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>SbS demonstrated a beneficial effect in alleviating UC by modulating the FXR-NLRP3 signaling pathway, thereby mitigating macrophage pyroptosis. This discovery presents new insights into effects of Sb on alleviating UC.</p>","PeriodicalId":16107,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Inflammation Research","volume":"18 ","pages":"3161-3176"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11891491/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143596902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
