This study identifies redundant γc cytokines that enhance IL-1-driven neutrophil inflammation via MEK/ERK convergence, showing that blocking the shared γc receptor or MEK/ERK reduces disease severity.

The paper establishes NSG+hIL6 mice as a model for studying multiple myeloma by showing they support engraftment of patient-derived myeloma cells and develop disease features.

This study develops a humanized mouse model to investigate the role of innate immunity in FSHD muscle pathology and identifies immune cell accumulation and complement gene expression in FSHD muscle xenografts.

The paper shows ADAM17 is the main enzyme that removes the outer part of the AREG protein, which is important for skin health and cancer.
