A wonderful story on how Btk inhibition potently affects neutrophil effector activity against Aspergillus fumigatus. Kudos to Dr. Diego Vargas @OWMHepworth @HannahEBrown3 (who created the artwork below) @nolling91 and the rest of the amazing team for their contributions. 👏

BTK inhibitors increase the risk of Aspergillus infections. Our new paper shows that these drugs blunt antifungal activities by neutrophils. How does this happen, and can we recover function? (1/5) insight.jci.org/articles/vie…

1/ So proud of this major group effort! Check out our new publication in @NatureMicrobiol exploring the mechanism by which extracellular vesicles from the fungal pathogen Candida albicans rewire innate immunity.
Out now: Candida albicans extracellular vesicles trigger type I IFN signalling via cGAS and STING @HannahEBrown3 @jmvyasmdphd @VyasLab nature.com/articles/s41564-0…
