About coronin 1 modulation
Coronin 1 depletion in preclinical models allows long-term acceptance of genetically unrelated organ transplants, prevents Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD), protects from several autoimmune disorders and at the same time allows to maintain a normal life span without infections and emergence of cancer, a frequent complication of contemporary immunosuppressants. Thus, modulating the coronin 1 pathway holds great potential for more effective and safer treatments for autoimmune diseases, as well as for transplantation medicine.
