Deubiquitinase OTUD6A in macrophages promotes intestinal inflammation and colitis via deubiquitination of NLRP3
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract, which has been shown to increase the incidence of colorectal cancer. Recent studies have highlighted the role of ubiquitination, a post-translational modification, in the occurrence and development of colonic inflammation. Ovarian tumor deubiquitinase 6 A (OTUD6A) is a deubiquitinating enzyme, which regulates cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. In this study, we investigated the expression and role of OTUD6A in IBD.
