In experimental autoimmune myocarditis, chronic activation of the STAT3-IL-6 axis in the liver sustains heart inflammation via complement C3/C5 upregulation. Poli and colleagues demonstrate that lipidoid-siRNA nanoparticles triggering liver-specific STAT3 or C3 silencing represent a therapeutic option, potentially bypassing the side effects of systemic STAT3 or complement inhibition.

Abstract

In experimental autoimmune myocarditis, chronic activation of the STAT3-IL-6 axis in the liver sustains heart inflammation via complement C3/C5 upregulation. Poli and colleagues demonstrate that lipidoid-siRNA nanoparticles triggering liver-specific STAT3 or C3 silencing represent a therapeutic option, potentially bypassing the side effects of systemic STAT3 or complement inhibition.
