Cholesterol metabolism drives regulatory B cell IL-10 through provision of geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate

IL-10 production by B cells is integral to regulation and resolution of inflammation. Here the authors show that cholesterol metabolism can control B cell IL-10 production via a geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate-dependent mechanism.
