Linked Claims

Claim 1mechanistic modelsupports2026Source 1DOIPubMed

The proposed metabolic-epigenetic axis links lactylation to immunosuppression through two synergistic mechanisms: histone lactylation for stable epigenetic programming and non-histone lactylation for rapid modulation of protein activity and stability.

Claim 2knowledge gapsupports2025Source 2DOIPubMed

The roles of lactate and lactylation modification in sepsis remain unclear.

Claim 3mechanistic rolesupports2025Source 2DOIPubMed

Lactate generated by aerobic glycolysis serves as a substrate for the tricarboxylic acid cycle and for histone lactylation-associated epigenetic regulation.

Claim 4therapeutic potentialsupports2025Source 2DOIPubMed

Regulation by lactate and lactylation during macrophage polarization in sepsis may represent a potential therapeutic target for sepsis.
