Immune cell multi-omics analysis reveals contribution of oxidative phosphorylation to B cell functions and organ damage of lupus

Y. Takeshima, Y. Iwasaki, M. Nakano, Y. Narushima, M. Ota, Y. Nagafuchi, S. Sumitomo, T. Okamura, K. B. Elkon, K. Ishigaki, A. Suzuki, Y. Kochi, K. Yamamoto, K. Fujio

The paper identifies oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) as a key driver in SLE B cells, linking mitochondrial dysfunction to immune signaling and organ damage.

Neutrophils Mediate Kidney Inflammation Following Acute Skin Exposure to UVB Light

S. Skopelja-Gardner, J. Tai, X. Sun, L. Tanaka, J. A. Kuchenbecker, J. M. Snyder, P. Kubes, T. Mustelin, K. B. Elkon

This study shows UVB light exposure leads to neutrophil migration to the kidney, causing inflammation and injury, with implications for systemic lupus flares.

The early local and systemic Type I interferon responses to ultraviolet B light exposure are cGAS dependent.

S. Skopelja-Gardner, J. An, J. Tai, L. Tanaka, X. Sun, P. Hermanson, M. Kawasumi, R. Green, M. Gale, A. Kalus, V. P. Werth, K. B. Elkon

This study shows UVB exposure triggers local and systemic Type I interferon responses in mice, which are largely cGAS-dependent and contribute to disease flares in SLE.
