Heikki Hyöty's group studies the role of viruses & other microbes in immune-mediated diseases.
Major initiative: Development of enterovirus vaccine against T1D

Enterovirus infections may occur throughout the natural history of type 1 #diabetes and may be associated to islet cell HLA-I hyperexpression. @Teresa_IDF1, @SarahIBEx, @JuttaELaiho #T1D #DiabetesResearch https://t.co/d2n643Ys4T 🔓

Joint analysis of @DiabetesnPOD tissues finds #enterovirus (EV) RNA in pancreas &lymphoid tissues with selected EV-specific methods. #EV RNA in #T1D spleen was frequent with properties previously observed in persistent infections @hhyotylab @TampeUniMET https://t.co/xS6zBysmLZ 🔓

Our joint effort paper with @NykterLab, @HHyotyLab, and the TEDDY group about RNA profiles in children prior to the type 1 diabetes-linked islet autoantibody appearance was selected as a highlight paper of last year. 👏🙂🏆 https://t.co/pgkn70ezB9 Photo by Jukka Lehtiniemi.

Happy to share our paper out in Nature Immunology! Here we provide molecular level evidence that inhibiting transglutaminase 2 (TG2) is a very promising strategy to treat celiac disease (CeD).

An important milestone reached in
the development of coxsackie B #vaccine against type 1 diabetes: Results
of phase 1 human trial were published today showing good safety and
immunogenicity. Mission continues! #T1D #enterovirus

Are you a #postdoc interested in #immunology and how our immune system reacts to #enterovirus infection and #vaccination? Want to help find a prevention for #T1D? This could be an opportunity for you: https://t.co/02312Nwpf0 #postdocjobs @MFT_Diabetes @CIM_Sweden @karolinskainst

Our new study shows that immunological pathways differ in different subtypes of #type1diabetes and the involvement of #enteroviruses in the initiation of the process.  https://t.co/oxo2J52zrk

Privileged to work with the talented people from the @NykterLab and @RautajokiLab 🙏

Probiotic intervention doesn't seem to affect beneficial intestinal protists in kids with #CeliacDisease autoimmunity. Surprisingly, the presence of the protists was inversely associated with gut-health-promoting bacteria. Read the new HEDIMED paper here!👇https://t.co/PUJAYAaUhm

[HEDIMED @HEDIMED2020]

To find associations between diseases (e.g. #T1D) and viral infections, we need different tools. Niila Jouppila has developed serological tools for enterovirus detection in his PhD work.🔬🧪

We’re hiring: Our clever previous postdoc candidates got permanent positions and we have funding for a two year POSTDOC in Oslo to study diabetes epidemiology https://t.co/aYjWXiyhzj

[Turun yliopisto - University of Turku @UniTurku]

Researchers @BioscienceTurku and @InFLAMES_Health have identified a gene expression signature that can predict the progression of type 1 diabetes. One benefit of such predictive signature could be the ability to intervene earlier in the disease process. https://t.co/afQtHI8PZb
