The Role and Mechanism of Aberrant Dendritic Cell Function in Autoimmunity

https://www.coltonconsortium.org/projects/the-role-and-mechanism-of-aberrant-dendritic-cell-function-in-autoimmunity/

Identifying a novel molecular regulator of tolerogenic dendritic cell function, this project uncovers how its loss triggers spontaneous multiorgan autoimmunity and exacerbates lupus — revealing a clinically relevant pathway in immune tolerance.

Utilizing RNA Replicons as Immune Modulators for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

https://www.coltonconsortium.org/projects/utilizing-rna-replicons-as-immune-modulators-for-systemic-lupus-erythematosus/

A self-replicating RNA platform delivers anti-inflammatory cytokines directly to the airways, offering targeted local immune suppression without systemic toxicity — a mechanistically distinct approach to treating lupus lung disease.

The Epidermis as a Novel Therapeutic Target in Pemphigus Vulgaris

https://www.coltonconsortium.org/projects/the-epidermis-as-a-novel-therapeutic-target-in-pemphigus-vulgaris/

By profiling genetic and molecular drivers of pemphigus vulgaris across patient skin and blood, this project uncovers genotype-driven inflammatory loops and actionable targets for personalized therapy.

The Role of Glycosylation in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

https://www.coltonconsortium.org/projects/the-role-of-glycosylation-in-inflammatory-bowel-disease/

Investigating how foreign sugar modifications on anti-TNF biologics trigger immune responses in pediatric IBD patients, this project aims to personalize biologic therapy selection and inform safer drug design.

Novel Tools to Track and Manipulate Immune Cells in Autoimmunity Models

https://www.coltonconsortium.org/projects/novel-tools-to-track-and-manipulate-immune-cells-in-autoimmunity-models/

Developing a cell-labeling tool to map immune cell interactions in living tissue, this project identifies the drivers of skin-resident T cell persistence in psoriasis and potential targets for disease prevention.
