Acute Viral Infection Accelerates Neurodegeneration in a Mouse Model of ALS

Art Marzok, Jonathan Mapletoft, Imran Ahmed, Braeden Cowbrough, Daniel B. Celeste, Michael R. D’Agostino, Jann Catherine Ang, Andrew Chen, Vithushan Surendran, Yona Tugg, Hahn Li, Karena Wong, Anna Dvorkin‐Gheva, Ali Zhang, Hannah D. Stacey, , Matthew S. Miller

Acute viral infection accelerates ALS progression in SOD1G93A mice by inducing gliosis and metabolic dysregulation, which can be mitigated by anti-inflammatory or antiviral treatments.

Senataxin is required for optimal class switch recombination to the immunoglobulin A isotype

Vithushan Surendran, Jonathan Mapletoft, Peter YF. Zeng, Julia Avolio, Sam Afkhami, Joshua J.C. McGrath, Andrew T. Chen, Art Marzok, Jann Catherine Ang, Kyle Amaral, Yona Tugg, Martin R. Stämpfli, Matthew S. Miller

This study shows that senataxin deficiency impairs class switch recombination to IgA in vitro, reduces IgA response to infection, and decreases IgA repertoire diversity in vivo.
