LCN2‐ACOD1 Signalling Affects the Post‐Injury Regeneration of Skeletal Muscle Through Mediating Ferroptosis

open access: yesCell Proliferation, Volume 59, Issue 4, April 2026.
LCN2 mediates the suppression of C2C12 myoblast proliferation and myotube formation via erastin‐induced ferroptosis. Mechanistically, the LCN2‐ACOD1 axis regulates skeletal muscle growth via mitochondria‐associated ferroptosis, providing a theoretical basis for the prevention and therapy of muscle‐related diseases.

The crystal structure of mouse IRG1 suggests that cis-aconitate decarboxylase has an open and closed conformation

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2020
Itaconate, produced as an offshoot of the TCA cycle, is a multifunctional immunometabolite possessing antibacterial, antiviral, immune regulation, and tumor progression activities. The production of itaconate in biological systems is catalyzed by cis-aconitate decarboxylase (CAD, also known as immune responsive gene 1 (IRG1) in mammals). In this study,

The NLRP3 Inflammasome: Mechanisms of Activation, Regulation, and Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Diverse diseases converge on NLRP3. We depict a discovery‐to‐clinic track: high‐throughput/phenotypic screens, structure‐guided design, and modality innovation (allosteric inhibitors, interface blockers, degraders) deliver third‐generation, disease‐tailored NLRP3 control.

Nanomedicine Targeting Macrophage Immunometabolism in Atherosclerosis: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Prospects

open access: yesOrgan Medicine, Volume 3, Issue 1, Page 27-53, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory–metabolic disorder, remains a leading cause of cardiovascular morbidity worldwide. This review explores the emerging paradigm of nanomedicine‐based targeting of macrophage immunometabolic reprogramming as a potentially transformative strategy for atherosclerosis treatment.

Genetic and functional characterisation of irg1 and irg1-like, two genes which are highly expressed during bacterial infection in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

open access: yes, 2011
Full text is available to authenticated members of The University of Auckland only.We aimed to identify two novel immune responsive genes in zebrafish (Danio rerio) and subsequently characterise their expression patterns during the innate immune response

Investigating the contribution of Immunoresponsive gene 1 (Irg1) to macrophage functions and its relevance to disease

open access: yes, 2015
Macrophages are essential effectors in the innate immune responses to injury, infection, and disease. Their broad functional plasticity allows them to tailor their behaviours to the specific homeostatic or immune needs of their microenvironment. However,
