    IFI27 levels are positively correlated with sepsis severity in patients, indicating its potential as a prognostic marker.

  • 2

    Elevated IFI27 expression in septic mice leads to reduced Treg abundance and IL-10 secretion, worsening lung injury.

  • 3

    IFI27 inhibits STAT5 phosphorylation, which negatively impacts Treg function and promotes ferroptosis in lung epithelial cells.

  • 4

    The study demonstrates that IFI27 enhances lipid peroxidation by suppressing the IL-10/STAT3 signaling pathway in Tregs.

  • 5

    IFI27's role in modulating Treg activity highlights its significance in the immunopathogenesis of sepsis-induced lung injury.
