4-Octyl itaconate suppresses IFN-γ-induced MHC II expression in bone marrow-derived macrophages
J Immunol. 2026 Oct 1;215(10):vkag255. doi: 10.1093/jimmun/vkag255. ABSTRACT Macrophages function as professional antigen-presenting cells that integrate inflammatory signals with metabolic reprogramming to shape immune responses. Itaconate, an immunometabolite derived from ACOD1/IRG1 activity in activated macrophages, has been implicated in the regulation of inflammatory responses, yet its role in interferon γ (IFN-γ)-driven antigen presentation programs remains … Read more
