RNA editing enzyme APOBEC3A promotes pro-inflammatory M1 macrophage polarization

Alqassim et al find that RNA editing, known to be induced by IFN-1 in macrophages by the enzyme APOBEC3A, is required for the transcriptional, pro-inflammatory and metabolic responses that drive M1 macrophage polarization. APOBEC3A-mediated editing is also induced by IFN-1 exposure in tumor-associat...
