Regulation of macrophage polarization and glucose metabolism by the ERK/MAPK-HK1 signaling pathway in paraquat-induced acute lung injury.

Acute lung injury is the leading cause of paraquat (PQ) poisoning-related mortality. The mechanism by which macrophages are involved in PQ-induced acute lung injury remains unclear. In recent years, the role of metabolic reprogramming in macrophage functional transformation has received significant attention.
