Glucocorticoids (GC), like dexamethasone and prednisolone, are widely used in medicine, but how do they actually work? This is really impressive work (Auger et al.), which figured it all out There are two mechanisms: a slow, broad response, which depends on transcriptional

Encouraging topline results regarding #tolebrutinib! In Hercules trial, tolebrutinib delayed disability progression vs. placebo in secondary-progressive MS patients without relapses. Thanks to our center's patients that participated in the trials! bit.ly/4g5WHCL

Big congrats to Shane O’Carroll and Christian Peace who led this study in our lab- a metabolite called Itaconate already known to be anti- inflammatory also drives anti-viral interferons via blocking the enzyme SDH. Funded by the ERC and Research Ireland tcd.ie/news_events/ar…

We mourn the loss of Prof. Giancarlo Comi, a pioneering neurologist in multiple sclerosis research. As a former ECTRIMS council member and European Charcot Foundation (European Charcot Foundation) founder, his contributions have profoundly shaped the field and patient care globally.

A vaccine could - in theory - prevent EBV-related autoimmunity, in addition to preventing the cancers that are caused by EBV There are no vaccines approved yet, but early trials are ongoing nature.com/articles/s4159…
