An autoimmunity-associated allele of PTPN22 enhances the innate immune response to promote protection against acute coronavirus infection

Alec M Bevis, Kathryn J.L.H. Rosa, Nancy Schwarting, Tammy Cockerham, Catherine M. Kerr, Sunil More, Anthony R. Fehr, Robin C. Orozco

This study shows that the PTPN22 1858C>T allele enhances innate immunity and protects against acute coronavirus infection by improving NK cell function.

Type I Interferon production in myeloid cells is regulated by factors independent of Ptpn22

Jenna Barnes, Anam Fatima Shaikh, Alec M Bevis, Tammy Cockerham, Robin C. Orozco

This study challenges previous findings by showing that PEP and its variant do not promote IFN-I production in myeloid cells, suggesting factors independent of PEP regulate this process.

PARP14 is an interferon (IFN)-induced host factor that promotes IFN production and affects the replication of multiple viruses

Srivatsan Parthasarathy, Pradtahna Saenjamsai, Hongping Hao, Anna Ferkul, Jessica J. Pfannenstiel, Daniel S. Bejan, Yating Chen, Ellen L. Suder, Nancy Schwarting, Masanori Aikawa, Elke Mühlberger, Adam J. Hume, Robin C. Orozco, Christopher S. Sullivan, Michael S. Cohen, , Anthony R. Fehr

This paper shows PARP14 promotes IFN production and has both antiviral and proviral functions against multiple viruses.

IFN-γ signaling is required for the efficient replication of murine hepatitis virus (MHV) strain JHM in the brains of infected mice.

Catherine M. Kerr, Macie A. Proctor-Roser, Srivatsan Parthasarathy, Joseph J. O’Connor, Jessica J. Pfannenstiel, Robin C. Orozco, Anthony R. Fehr

This study shows that IFN-γ is required for efficient replication of JHMV in mouse brains, despite reduced viral replication in IFN-γ and IFN-γR knockout mice.
