Abstract
UNC93B1 is essential for the stability and endosomal trafficking of nucleic-acid sensing Toll-like receptors (TLRs) including TLR7 and TLR8. Increased TLR7 responses are associated with lupus autoimmunity in both mice and humans. In a recent article, Al-Azab et al. demonstrate the role of a variant of UNC93B1 (p.V117L) in the induction of pediatric systemic lupus erythematosus in patients and in mice through TLR7/8 hyperresponsiveness. They also highlight a potential role for the pharmacological inhibition of interleukin-1 receptor–associated kinase (IRAK) 1 and/or 4 in ameliorating disease.
期刊介绍：
The Australasian Society for Immunology Incorporated (ASI) was created by the amalgamation in 1991 of the Australian Society for Immunology, formed in 1970, and the New Zealand Society for Immunology, formed in 1975. The aim of the Society is to encourage and support the discipline of immunology in the Australasian region. It is a broadly based Society, embracing clinical and experimental, cellular and molecular immunology in humans and animals. The Society provides a network for the exchange of information and for collaboration within Australia, New Zealand and overseas. ASI members have been prominent in advancing biological and medical research worldwide. We seek to encourage the study of immunology in Australia and New Zealand and are active in introducing young scientists to the discipline.
