Binge drinking is defined as the excessive consumption of alcohol within a single drinking episode, and is the typical consumption pattern among young people in Western countries. While most young binge drinkers are not clinically alcohol dependent, binge drinking has emerged as a significant social and public health concern. The circulating alcohol consumed during binge episodes permeates cellular membranes throughout the body, exerting profound effects on multiple organs, and signaling pathways. Regular binge drinking eventually induces hepatic steatosis (fatty liver), initiates acute inflammation, and accelerates neutrophil infiltration, de novo lipogenesis, adipocyte death/lipolysis, and the production of nonoxidative alcohol metabolites, processes that synergize to damage liver tissue and impair liver function. Metabolic abnormalities such as diabetes and obesity can also exacerbate the progression of alcohol-related liver disease among binge drinkers. Several animal models have been developed to evaluate the pathophysiological changes resulting from binge drinking; however, the pathogenesis of binge drinking is not fully understood due to differences in alcohol metabolism between animal models and humans. Thus, given the high prevalence and severe health implications of binge drinking, there is an urgent need for comprehensive experimental and clinical investigations to unravel the associated pathophysiological changes. This review summarizes recent research findings on the impact of binge drinking, specifically focusing on its contributions to alcoholic liver injury.</div>","PeriodicalId":8287,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Pharmacal Research","volume":"48 3","pages":"212 - 223"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143539840","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to investigate the anti-fibrotic effect of a novel 11β-HSD1 inhibitor in a thioacetamide (TAA)-induced liver fibrosis mouse model. Mice were administered TAA for 19 weeks and treated with 11β-HSD1 inhibitor for the last 9 weeks. Treatment with 11β-HSD1 inhibitor significantly reduced fibrosis area, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase levels compared to the TAA-only group. Inhibition of 11β-HSD1 led to a decrease in intracellular cortisol levels, which suppressed the activation of hepatic stellate cells. RNA sequencing revealed significant downregulation of the Notch signaling pathway, including reduced expression of Notch ligands and receptors, as well as downstream genes. Furthermore, 11β-HSD1 inhibition enhanced NK cell-mediated immune responses, as indicated by the upregulation of NK cell-related genes and increased NK cell populations confirmed by mass cytometry. This increase in NK cell activity contributed to the clearance of activated HSCs and the attenuation of fibrosis. These findings suggest that 11β-HSD1 inhibition alleviates liver fibrosis through Notch pathway suppression and enhancement of NK cell-mediated immune responses.

Within TME, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced by various cells and exhibit a dual role: moderate ROS levels promote tumor initiation and progression, whereas excessive levels induce cancer cell death, influencing the efficacy of anticancer therapies. Inflammasomes, cytosolic multiprotein complexes, are pivotal in multiple stages of tumorigenesis and play a crucial role in establishing the inflammatory TME. By releasing cytokines such as IL-1β and IL-18, inflammasomes contribute to immune cell recruitment and sustain a chronic inflammatory state that supports tumor growth. ROS are critical regulators of inflammasome activation, with the impact of ROS-mediated activation differing across cell types, leading to distinct influences on tumor progression and therapeutic responses. This review explores how ROS drive inflammasome activation in various TME-associated cells and the reciprocal ROS generation induced by inflammasomes, examining their multifaceted impact on tumorigenesis and therapeutic efficacy.

In the present study, the physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was developed using data from subjects whose pharmacokinetic parameters were influenced by the genetic polymorphisms of the CYP metabolic enzymes. All predicted plasma concentration–time profiles generated by the model showed visual agreement with the observed data, and the pharmacokinetic results were within the twofold error range. Individual simulation results showed additional metrics: average fold error (− 0.19 to 0.07), geometric mean fold error (1.13–1.56), and mean relative deviation (1.18–1.58) for AUC, Cmax, T1/2, Tmax, CL/F, and Vd values. These results met the standard evaluation criteria. The validation across a total of 8 studies and 7 races also satisfied the twofold error range for AUC, Cmax, and T1/2. Therefore, variations in gliclazide exposure according to individuals’ CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genotypes were properly captured through PBPK modeling in this study.
