| Core Tip |
The mechanisms of cholelithiasis are incompletely understood. The study by Wang et al is the first to demonstrate that lysine acetyltransferase 2A-mediated succinylation of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibits gallstone formation by activating the AMPK/silent information regulator 1 pathway and suppressing inflammation and pyroptosis in gallbladder mucosal epithelial cells. This finding provides a novel therapeutic target, filling a gap in succinylation research in cholelithiasis. After obtaining meaningful conclusions from basic research, more work is needed, specifically horizontal and vertical research expansions and verification using real-world patient specimens, to bridge the gap from basic research to clinical practice. |
