New human inborn error of immunity! By identifying biallelic OSMR deficiency as a novel Primary Atopic Disorder, we uncover a previously unrecognized mechanism driving severe allergic disease and provide new insights into the biology of human atopy.
New human primary atopic disorder defined: @SimranKaurSamra and Sharma et al. @turveylab @UBC show OSMR deficiency disrupts OSM-STAT signaling, driving severe early-onset #eczema, #eosinophilia, and elevated IgE. hubs.la/Q04jcnX50 #Immunology #Genetics #Atopy #IEIs

Fascinating and really cool 😎 study by @BogunovicLab in @jhumimmunity !
Latest from us. Led by amazing Azzeddine Tahiat. Novel forms of CD55 deficiency. Importantly, C5 inhibition restores B cell homeostasis #CHAPLE disease @KidsAtColumbia @ColumbiaPS @Columbia rupress.org/jhi/article/2/4/…

Earlier this month, the JMF team traveled to New Orleans for the Clinical Immunology Society (CIS) Annual Meeting, bringing together physicians, scientists, advocates, patients, and families from around the world to advance the future of clinical #immunology. During the meeting, JMF Scientific Director Jessica Quinn presented a poster highlighting findings from an upcoming publication on the Jeffrey’s Insights genetic sequencing program. We were proud to see our WINMD Grant recipients attending and presenting research posters at CIS. Supporting the next generation of researchers and innovators in immunology remains a vital part of JMF’s mission. While in New Orleans, we also hosted an in-person meeting of our Patient & Family Advisory Board (#PFAB), uniting patients and families affected by STAT1 GOF, STAT3 GOF, and JAK1 GOF to help create educational resources that truly reflect and amplify the patient experience. We are honored to continue supporting collaboration, research, education, and patient advocacy within the global PI community 💙 #CIS2026 #ClinicalImmunology #PrimaryImmunodeficiency #PICommunity #RareDisease #PatientAdvocacy #NOLA #JMFPFAB

Congrats Rui!! Terrific news. And totally deserved !
I am proud and honored to be a CPRIT Scholar. My lab will open at @bcmhouston and @TexasChildrens in August 2026. Please check out what we study: bcm-rui-yang-genetics.github… We are always excited to work with energetic and motivated trainees.

A major step forward for the Primary Immunodeficiency community 💙 The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved a new gene therapy for Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome – offering a potentially long-lasting treatment that uses a patient’s own cells to help restore immune function. For patients and families, this represents more than just scientific progress – it’s hope for safer, more effective care and a future with fewer infections and complications. Advances like this highlight the power of research, innovation, and advocacy in changing lives.

Terrific work by @ErikaDellaMina1 identifying a novel pathogenic CARD9 variant, & identifying CD4 T cell defects that likely contribute to CMC in this and other CARD9 def patients.
Since the first description of inherited CARD9 deficiency in 2009, nearly 100 patients with biallelic germline #CARD9 mutations have been reported. doi.org/10.1172/jci.insight.… Here, Erika Della Mina @ErikaDellaMina1 & team @GarvanInstitute report on a patient with severe #FungalInfections carrying a novel homozygous nonsense CARD9 variant (c.673A>T/p.K225*) that results in a truncated protein unable to mediate innate immunity, CD4 T cell intrinsic IL-17 immunity, and Candida-specific T-cell response. The figure: Identification of a novel homozygous nonsense K225*/K225* variant in CARD9 in a single patient with recurrent fungal infections.

Important piece with a clear, cogent stance. It’s been challenging to convince some healthcare professionals that this is not a true inborn error of immunity.
