Sunday Read💫: A novel axis that can fine-tune the immune response to glomerular and tubule cell damage: doi.org/10.1172/jci.insight.… Jamie R. Privratsky @JamiePrivratsky & team @DukeKidney @Duke_Anesthesia identify a novel myeloid cell-endothelial cell immunoregulatory axis, supporting a model whereby myeloid IL-1R1 activity constrains ER stress–mediated EBI3/IL27 secretion, thereby attenuating type I IFN expression in kidney endothelial cells and ameliorating autoimmune nephritis. The figure shows anti-IFNAR1 therapy abrogates kidney injury after NTS nephritis in mice lacking IL-1R1 specifically in myeloid cells (bottom); littermate controls (top). #AKI #Nephrology #kidney #macrophage

Motivated by personal connections to kidney disease patients, Caleb Spruill explored research through OPSD's PRIME PUMP program in Uronephrology. Learn how PUMP shaped his path toward medicine in the July OPSD Newsletter: mailchi.mp/duke/opsd-july26 #PRIMEPUMP #KidneyResearch
Graphic promoting the PRIME PUMP Uronephrology Program undergraduate research experience. The design features a cutout photo of a student standing with arms crossed inside a teal circle. Text reads: “PRIME PUMP URONEPHROLOGY PROGRAM,” “UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH,” “GBADEGESIN LABORATORY,” and “CALEB SPRUILL.” Medical and research-themed illustrations, including a stethoscope, microscope, and kidney icon, surround the student on a light gray background.
