An honor to write a @J_Immunol Pillars piece for @slg1717 and H.Conti groundbreaking work @JExpMed on IL-17 promoting mucosal fungal defense. A rare example of basic research that faithfully translates to humans and will undoubtedly stand the test of time!

3/3 an antisense oligonucleotide could restore normal AIRE splicing in vitro, pointing to a potential treatment approach for these patients (currently being tested in a new KI mouse model with this variant). Thanks to all referring physicians and to collaborators @AfzaliBehdad.

2/3 Founder variant in Puerto Rico, also found in Spain and in a US patient without Puerto Rican or Spanish ancestry; thus, likely to be enriched in other Hispanic APECED cohorts and also sporadically in US patients. Important to incorporate into existing genetic panels for IEI.
