IFNγ initiates TLR9-dependent autoimmune hepatitis in DNase II deficient mice
2024-07-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Patients with biallelic hypomorphic mutation in DNASE2 develop systemic autoinflammation and early-onset liver fibrosis. Prior studies showed that Dnase2 -/- Ifnar -/- double knockout (DKO) mice develop Type I IFN-independent liver inflammation, but immune mechanisms were unclear. We now show that DKO mice recapitulate many features of human autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), including periportal an...
