Two Yale studies have identified a promising new antibody therapy and a previously unknown signaling pathway as potential treatments for fibrotic autoimmune diseases including scleroderma, lupus, and graft-versus-host disease.
A Colton-supported Yale study published in Science Immunology shows that skin injury can trigger food allergies via a skin-gut immune connection — offering a new explanation for the link between eczema and food allergy.
A Colton-supported NYU study published in Science Translational Medicine has identified impaired regulatory T cells as a key driver of Sjögren's disease — and found a promising existing drug as a potential therapy.
