A series of publications demonstrated that inhibiting Arid5a augmented several processes, such as preventing septic shock, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, acute lung injury, invasion and metastasis, immune evasion, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, and the M1-like tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) to M2-like TAM transition. This evidence concerns the gene ARID5A and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
