    A host enzyme reduces metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) by inactivating intestinal lipopolysaccharide

    Zhiyan Wang, Nore Ojogun ... Mingfang Lu
    A MASLD mouse model reveals that gut-derived Gram-negative bacterial lipopolysaccharides promote hepatic lipid accumulation and acyloxyacyl hydrolase, a host lipase that degrades and inactivates lipopolysaccharides and mitigates MASLD.

    RAS–p110α signalling in macrophages is required for effective inflammatory response and resolution of inflammation

    Alejandro Rosell, Agata Adelajda Krygowska ... Esther Castellano Sanchez
    Disruption of RAS–p110α signalling in macrophages impairs both the initiation and resolution of inflammatory responses, revealing a critical regulatory role in immune function and inflammation control.
