Different strategies influence pro-inflammatory (M1) or anti-inflammatory/reparative (M2) macrophage phenotypes by modulating key metabolic enzymes, nutrient-sensing signals, or metabolite levels, and have shown certain therapeutic potential in a variety of inflammatory or autoimmune disease models
2 Otoprotection in Zebrafish Lateral Line Hair Cells Uribe et al., Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience (2015) This paper from the Coffin laboratory (with WSU co-authors) tested whether Dihexa could protect zebrafish lateral line hair cells (homologous to mammalian inner ear hair cells) from aminoglycoside-induced ototoxicity
Wound Healing Accelerates tissue repair by attracting immune cells and stem cells to damaged areas, promoting new blood vessel formation, and reducing scar tissue
Additional studies are required to further characterize the biological interactions between these compounds and their potential applications within regenerative and cellular biology research
