Anti-inflammatory treatment using alpha melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) does not alter osteoblasts differentiation and fracture healing by Johanna Graue, Melanie Timmen, Katharina Schmitz, Daniel Kronenberg, Markus Böhm, Kishor K. Sivaraj, M. Gabriele Bixel, Richard Stange

“…All four melanocortin receptor-molecules were expressed in murine osteoblastic cells but in very limited amounts and this did not change upon treatment with inflammatory cytokines or α-MSH or both at the same time. Callus formation in fractured femurs of α-MSH-treated mice was slightly delayed at day 14 post fracture with regard to less cartilage formation (NaCl: 19.9%; α-MSH: 13.5%) and soft tissue remodeling (NaCl: 15.2%; α-MSH: 19.5%) but these results were not significantly different and fracture healing overall occurred in a regular way. …”

Immunologic and inflammatory consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection and its implications in renal disease by Hiam Naiditch, Michael R. Betts, H. Benjamin Larman, Moshe Levi, Avi Z. Rosenberg

“…Delayed transcription of Type I and Type III interferons by SARS-CoV-2 may lead to early disinhibition of viral replication. Cytokines such as interleukin-1 (IL-1), IL-6, IL-12, and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), some of which may be produced through mechanisms involving nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), likely contribute to the hyperinflammatory state in patients with severe COVID-19. …”
