Acidic pH regulates a switch-like gene-specific inflammatory response in macrophagesAcidic pH impacts chromatin remodeling and transcription circuits to control inflammatory programsBRD4 transcriptional condensates are regulated by intracellular pH via pH-sensitive motifs located within the intrinsically disordered regionTissue inflammation decreases intracellular pH and disrupts BRD4 condensates as a negative feedback.
