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

Today is R U OK day in Australia but yesterday was the start of the Ethiopian New Year so we celebrated with our PhD student Yibeltal who is way from friends and family. Our “lab family” gave him the traditional yellow flowers- we spared him our attempt at traditional dancing!
