Background Spinal cord injury (SCI)‐induced neuroinflammation and oxidative stress (OS) are crucial events causing neurological dysfunction. Aconitate decarboxylase 1 (ACOD1) and its metabolite itaconate (Ita) inhibit inflammation and OS by promoting ...

Targeting the ACOD1-itaconate axis stabilizes atherosclerotic plaques
Inflammatory macrophages are key drivers of atherosclerosis that can induce rupture-prone vulnerable plaques. Skewing the plaque macrophage population towards a more protective phenotype and reducing the occurrence of clinical events is thought to be a ...

Elucidating tumour-associated microglia/macrophage diversity along glioblastoma progression and under ACOD1 deficiency [PDF]
In glioblastoma (GBM), tumour‐associated microglia/macrophages (TAMs) represent the major cell type of the stromal compartment and contribute to tumour immune escape mechanisms.

Macrophages inhibit Coxiella burnetii by the ACOD1‐itaconate pathway for containment of Q fever [PDF]
Infection with the intracellular bacterium Coxiella (C.) burnetii can cause chronic Q fever with severe complications and limited treatment options. Here, we identify the enzyme cis‐aconitate decarboxylase 1 (ACOD1 or IRG1) and its product itaconate as ...

Sirt3 improves monosodium urate crystal-induced inflammation by suppressing Acod1 expression
Background Previous studies have revealed that Sirt3 deficiency is associated with several inflammatory responses. The purpose of this study is to investigate the role and potential molecular mechanisms of Sirt3 in the inflammation induced by monosodium ...

Stromal cell-derived itaconate promotes endometriosis via macrophage NRF2 and lysosomal pH modulation [PDF]
Endometriosis (EM) is driven by immune dysregulation and macrophage dysfunction, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, metabolomic profiling revealed excessive itaconate accumulation in EM lesions, primarily due to elevated cis-aconitate ...

Identification of a metabolic–immune crosstalk in Still’s disease: monocyte/macrophage-derived immunometabolite itaconate dictates hepatic immunopathology via the CXCL10–CD8 T cell axis [PDF]
Still’s disease (SD) is a chronic and systemic autoinflammatory disorder, with the possibility of resulting in life-threatening complications, including macrophage activation syndrome (MAS).

Itaconate and its derivatives in human health and diseases [PDF]
Metabolic reprogramming forms the foundation of immune effector functions and the regulation of inflammation. As a pivotal node connecting the tricarboxylic acid cycle to immune signaling, the IRG1/ACOD1 and itaconate axes play a central role in ...
