MCC950 Ameliorates Acute Liver Injury Through Modulating Macrophage Polarization and Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells Function

Acute liver injury (ALI) raises high mortality rates due to a rapid pathological process. MCC950, a highly selective nod-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inhibitor, has already been reported to show strong hepatoprotective effects in many different liver diseases. In this study...
