Congratulations to @shouyafeng.bsky.social @sethlucianmasters.bsky.social and the entire team on our lab’s latest publication out now in @natimmunol.bsky.social! #autoinflammation #autoinflammatory

A large dataset we hope is helpful for patients who may have CAPS, an #autoinflammatory condition associated with genetic variants in NLRP3. Lots of "variants of uncertain significance" now have a specific readout from our in vitro assay which can help with clinical diagnosis. rdcu.be/d9iRG

Excited to share this paper from my post-doc at @niaidnews.bsky.social out now in Science Immunology! We show that recent or ongoing 🫁 infections or other pulmonary environmental exposures at the time of infection with SARSCoV2 can vastly influence early replication of the virus in mice.

The inflammatory microenvironment of the lung at the time of infection governs innate control of SARS-CoV-2 replication

Recent or ongoing respiratory inflammation in the lung regulates antiviral immune responses to SARS-CoV-2.
