Myeloid IRF5 is required for TLR7-driven inflammatory hemophagocyte differentiation and Macrophage Activation Syndrome
2026-08-23
Abstract excerpt
In TLR7-driven macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), inflammatory hemophagocytes (iHPCs) differentiate from Ly6CHI monocytes, phagocytose red blood cells and promote disease, including anemia and thrombocytopenia. We demonstrate here that IRF5 is required for iHPC differentiation and MAS in TLR7-overexpressing (TLR7.1) mice. Both constitutive and myeloid-specific Irf5 deletion reduced iHPCs and improved anemia, th...
