Ominous false alarm in the kidney

—Bonn researchers have discovered how a small, naturally occurring RNA molecule in the kidney activates a mutated immune receptor, triggering a chain reaction. In cooperation with Nanyang Technological University Singapore and the University Hospital Würzburg, among others, the study provides an explanation for how a point mutation in the immune receptor RIG-I transforms the body's defense system into a self-destructive force and causes severe organ-specific autoimmune diseases. The results have now been published in the journal Science Immunology.

Unique immune signatures to distinguish MOGAD from MS

—Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is a rare autoimmune condition in which the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the protective myelin sheath of nerve fibers in the central nervous system. Although MOGAD induces symptoms similar to multiple sclerosis (MS), its underlying biology appears to be fundamentally different. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for developing effective, disease-specific treatments. A new international study now sheds light on these immune differences.

How immune cells deliver their deadly cargo

—Precision is crucial for immune cells: natural killer (NK) cells and T cells eliminate infected or transformed cells by releasing targeted, highly toxic particles. A new study from the CeMM (Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences), the St. Anna Children’s Cancer Research Institute, the Medical University of Vienna, the Medical University of Graz, the University Hospital Bonn (UKB) and the University of Bonn offers deeper insight into how these so-called cytotoxic granules are released.
