Following relaxation of #COVID19 restrictions surges in infections from respiratory pathogens like RSV and #StrepA have been seen in many countries including Aotearoa New Zealand.
Did waning immunity contribute? We explored this concept in our latest work https://t.co/DOHgmfrXDz
Our latest work focused on understanding acute rheumatic fever is now out - an immune signature comprising inflammatory markers, IgG3, and StrepA-specific antibodies

1/4 Is carbon pricing inflationary? New IMF research exploits Europe's 30 year history of carbon pricing and finds that so far carbon pricing has raised the price of energy but has had a limited effect on overall inflation. Read here: https://t.co/uICjm0bsn2
Our latest publication suggests functional StrepA antibodies generated following natural infection differ between major strain types! Great work from everyone to get this out!

Our latest work suggests functional/protective StrepA antibody responses, acquired through natural infection, differ between major strain types. Expertly led by @RHCMcG with 'team OPK' and collaborators. @JoshOsowicki@LaurenCarlton13@kumarprax https://t.co/HJKTi5yBV1
In our latest paper we set out to map epitopes on a #StrepA vaccine antigen...
But with structural biology in the mix we wound up thinking about how pili bend like a 'knee-joint' instead 🤔
Fun team incl @RHCMcG@nat_lorenz and twitterless xray folk

Have an interest in autoantibodies? Take a look at this review by @LaurenCarlton13 in our lab describing the latest technologies out there to identify them
We're now applying some of these methods to rheumatic fever, watch this space for more soon @RHCMcG

A timely and needed review covering the current understanding of the roked cytokines play in Rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease.
And thoughtful consideration of possible therapies to combat detrimental cytokine responsed.
Need a summary on the role of cytokines in rheumatic fever? Then check out this new review by @Francis_M_M in our lab with input from @rachelwebbNZ@RHCMcG and @Nigeljwilson6

Findings from the rheumatic fever risk factor study are now out in @LancetRH_WPac👇
Led by Michael Baker @otago there was a strong association with #StrepA skin infections. Adds to growing evidence that both throat and skin infections can trigger disease https://t.co/N089rEY3Ss
