mtDNA Activates AIM2-Mediated PANoptosis in Interstitial Macrophages to Promote Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Pneumonitis
Immune checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP) is a serious immune-related adverse event, yet its mechanisms remain unclear. Using a mouse model of anti-PD-1-induced CIP, we show that PD-1 blockade induces pulmonary inflammation and dysfunction, accompanied by accumulation of lung interstitial macrophages (IMs) and PANoptosis, preferentially in IMs rather than alveolar macrophages. Anti-PD-1 also…
