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.
