Lung-derived HMGB1 is detrimental for vascular remodeling of metabolically imbalanced arterial macrophages

Lung damage increases abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) incidence, but the mechanism was unclear. Here, the authors show that injured lungs leak HMGB1, increasing RIPK3 expression in arterial macrophages that subsequently alters mitochondrial function, leading to MMP12 expression and AAA development.
