A very interesting study that convinced me to be more mindful about the cooking oil I use from now on.
Recommend this opportunity for ECRs who might be interested. eLife's early-career reviewer pool offers a great platform for ECRs to gain peer-review experience. I learned a lot from being involved in this program.

Thrilled to share our work now published on @cp-immunity.bsky.social . Big thanks to our collaborators. Here we show that short-term High-Fat diet impairs ILC3 functions in producing IL-22 through microbiota-dependent and-independent mechanisms.

Online now: Acute exposure to high-fat diet impairs ILC3 functions and gut homeostasis
Xiong et al. report that short-term, high-fat diet exposure rapidly alters the gut microbial and immune environment, disrupting tissue homeostasis. IL-22 production by group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) is impaired, compromising gut barrier integrity. Saturated fatty acids intrinsically suppress ILC3 function, reducing their ability to control gut inflammation.
