Type I interferon-mediated autoinflammation due to DNase II deficiency

Mathieu P Rodero, +73 more
TL;DR: Loss-of-function mutations in the DNASE2 gene are identified that cause type I interferon-mediated autoinflammation due to enhanced systemicinterferon signaling and are defined as a type I Interferonopathy due to DNase II deficiency in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

The analgesic effect on neuropathic pain of retrogradely transported botulinum neurotoxin A involves Schwann cells and astrocytes.

TL;DR: It is found that BoNT/A modulates the proliferation of SC and inhibits the acetylcholine release from SC, evidencing a new biological effect of the toxin and further supporting the retrograde transport of the toxins along the nerve and its ability to influence regenerative processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-Awareness: Nucleic Acid-Driven Inflammation and the Type I Interferonopathies.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the group of Mendelian inborn errors of immunity referred to as the type I interferonopathies relate to a breakdown of self/nonself discrimination, with the associated mutant genotypes involving molecules playing direct or indirect roles in nucleic acid signaling.
