https://www.coltonconsortium.org/projects/spatial-dynamics-of-intestinal-b-cell-immunoreceptor-signaling-in-health-and-disease-ibd/
Using single-molecule imaging to visualize B cell receptor signaling across gut compartments, this project uncovers how intestinal B cell education breaks down in IBD, revealing new targets for therapeutic intervention.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
