ADAR1 Controls Macrophage Scavenging and Lipid-Buffering Programs in Metabolic TissuesEuropean journal of immunology · 2026
Summary (written by the submitters)
Adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 1 (ADAR1) regulates mRNA fate and function through adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing and RNA-binding activities. While its role in innate immunity is well established, the broader regulatory functions of ADAR1 in macrophages remain poorly defined. Here, we systematically profiled ADAR1 expression across human immune cells and identified a marked enrichment in macrophages, driven by selective usage of an alternative transcription start site during monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation.

ADAR1 binds, edits, and modulates key macrophage targets involved in efferocytosis, endocytosis, lysosomal processing, lipid metabolism, and proliferation in an isoform-specific manner. We further demonstrate that ADAR1 levels and activity are dynamically regulated in adipose tissue and liver during the progression of metabolic disease. Linked to this, macrophage specific ablation of ADAR1 co-cultured in organotypic 3D primary human spheroids and exposed to metabolic stress resulted in an exacerbated lipid accumulation phenotype. Finally, we identify a lipid-associated macrophage-specific upregulation of ADAR1 in adipose tissue following weight loss interventions, mechanistically driven by free fatty acids. These findings uncover a previously unrecognized role for ADAR1 in lipid-buffering, scavenging, and proliferative macrophage functions, extending its biological relevance beyond canonical interferon-mediated immunity and establishing ADAR1 as a key regulator of macrophage adaptation in metabolic disease.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE319320_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

All supplementary files ↗ Whole study · RAW.tar ↓
3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

Raw reads on ENA ↗

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1422824 and SRA study SRP676616. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
