A genome-wide CRISPR screen for regulators of astrocyte inflammation identified CLEC16A, linked to MS susceptibility, as a suppressor of NF-κB signaling; CLEC16A promotes mitophagy, and ablating it in astrocytes worsens pathology in an MS model nature.com/articles/s4159…

Our study on glioblastoma-associated immunoregulatory astrocytes is out in nature today by Camilo! We identified GBM-derived IL-11 as a regulator of TRAIL+ astrocytes, which limit anti-tumor T cell responses via apoptosis. nature.com/articles/s4158…
