6 Apr 2016
Abstract excerpt
Missense mutation in the proline-serine-threonine phosphatase-interacting protein 2 (Pstpip2) gene results in the development of spontaneous chronic bone disease characterized by bone deformity and inflammation that is reminiscent of patients with chronic multifocal osteomyelitis (cmo). Interestingly, this disease is specifically mediated by IL-1β but not IL-1α. The precise molecular pathways that promote...
