What if we could restore immune tolerance instead of suppressing the entire #ImmuneSystem?
We developed Ro60-specific Tregs for #SjogrensDisease, bringing antigen-specific cell therapy one step closer to reality

New @SCSMonash research led by @cwonglab and Dr Joshua Bourne shows microglia, not invading immune cells, drive damaging inflammation in the first hours after stroke.
Targeting these brain-resident cells could protect function and improve recovery.

Fabulous collaboration between @SCSMonash @MonashCID @Hudson_Research and A/Prof Grant Logan from @CMRI_AUS harnessing gene therapy to deliver therapeutic doses of DNaseI to clear extracellular DNA release from NETs in experimental ANCA Vasculitis.
Extracellular DNA is known to induce inflammation, but does it drive kidney damage in autoimmune vasculitis?
@Kim_M_OS & team @MonashUni report on targeting ecDNA with DNAase I in models of MPO-ANCA vasculitis.

Time is critical in AAV: dampening kidney inflammation prevents damage
Why not target effector T cells - leave other T cells alone?
Our paper in @NDTsocial defines IL-7Ra as a target

IL-7Ra signalling in AAV links to relapse/resistance
Our recent paper
🔹defined activated & exhausted T cells in experimental AAV kidneys
🔹neutralised IL-7Ra - a non-depleting mAb - to limit ANCA-associated GN
Similar mAbs are in Phase 2 clinical trials
