In our previous study, we demonstrated that aberrant Wnt5a expression was involved in acute-on-chronic liver failure. However, the role of Wnt5a in ALF is unknown. We investigated the expression of Wnt5a and its downstream c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling in a mouse model of ALF established by coinjection of D-galactosamine (D-Gal) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in C57BL/6 mice. We also investigated the role of Box5, a Wnt5a antagonist, in vivo. Moreover, the effect of Wnt5a/JNK signaling on downstream inflammatory cytokine expression, phagocytosis, and migration in THP-1 macrophages was studied in vitro. Aberrant Wnt5a expression and JNK activation were detected in D-Gal/LPS-induced ALF mice. Box5 pretreatment reversed JNK activation and eventually decreased the mortality rate of D-Gal/LPS-treated mice, with reduced hepatic necrosis and apoptosis, serum ALT and AST levels, and liver inflammatory cytokine expression, although the latter was not significant. We further demonstrated that recombinant Wnt5a (rWnt5a)-induced tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) mRNA expression and increased THP-1 macrophage phagocytosis in a JNK-dependent manner, which could be restored by Box5. In addition, rWnt5a-induced migration of THP-1 macrophages was also reversed by Box5. Our findings suggested that Wnt5a/JNK signaling plays an important role in the development of ALF and that Box5 could have particular hepatoprotective effects in ALF. The use of fertility preservation (FP) techniques has significantly increased in recent years in the assigned female at birth (AFAB) transgender population. Oocyte cryopreservation
