Nrn1, a novel extracellular evolutionarily conserved molecule, impacts cellular electric and metabolic state and contributes to cell fate and immune response outcome.
Intermittent fasting affects intestinal immunity through new interactions between macrophages and ILC3s, increasing ILC3 secretion of IL-22 and thus promoting white adipose tissue beigeing, and improving metabolism.
