We are excited to share our collaborative work with @LabPeters is freshly published in Science Immunology!🥳✨🧠
We revealed the detailed mechanism of T–B cell interactions in meningeal eLFs in the mouse model of MS.👏💪

🔬 Exciting news! Our latest paper, together with @Ker_Lab, is out now in @NatureNeuro ! 📚 We conducted a genome-wide in vivo #CRISPR screen to uncover regulators of T cell migration into the CNS in a multiple sclerosis model. Check out the details! 🐀🧬https://t.co/S2ETLyVVN4

Check out our latest research published in @PNAS 🎉🔬Using our intravital imaging approach, we provide direct footage of microbiota-mediated T cell activation in the ileal lamina propria resulting in phenotypical changes of the encephalitogenic T cells. https://t.co/wWZHMOZtEW

Exciting work by Behrens et al.! Congrats to Vigo Heissmeyer with his team and to all collaborators. It was a pleasure to contribute.

[Nature Immunology @NatImmunol]

Mutations in the RNA-binding proteins Roquin-1 or Regnase-1 cause systemic autoimmunity. Behrens et al show that Roquin-1 and Regnase-1 physically interact and thereby regulate CD4+ and CD8+ T cell metabolism and functionality. https://t.co/SrTGLqwHMG @LMU_Muenchen

[KawakamiLab @KawakamiLab]

Congratulations to @korn_lab on their outstanding work, which is now published in @NatImmunol! 🥳 We really enjoyed being part of the team.
Take a look on how the site of peripheral T cell priming defines their effector phenotypes in CNS autoimmunity:

We are glad to be part of this interesting joint project of the Dornmair Lab of @INIM_Munich and colleagues from @NeuroimmunoCBR on the resurrection of a pathogenic immune response from a unique patient who died in 1958 from autoimmune encephalomyelitis: https://t.co/lEp2NwZX8f

[KawakamiLab @KawakamiLab]

We are happy to share our latest publication together with @LabMeinl on the novel CNS autoantigen OMGP. Well done, Ramona!

[Meinl Lab @LabMeinl]

Congratulations to our postdoc Ramona Gerhards for the exciting work on a novel target for autoimmunity in the #CNS
You can now read how OMGP Abs improve patients stratification!
