    Abstract

    While the commensal microbiota is considered an important regulator of immunity and metabolism, the mechanisms controlling the interplay between diet, cytokine signaling, and the microbiota in atherosclerosis remains unknown. In this issue of Immunity, Fatkhullina et al. (2018) demonstrate that interlukin-23-22 axis regulates diet-induced atherosclerosis by repressing pro-atherogenic microbiota.
