Hugh Kearney, Neurologist at Trinity College Dublin, shared on LinkedIn about a recent article he and his colleagues co-authored, adding:
“I am pleased to be involved in this new study from Eric Downer‘s lab in TCD – this new paper highlights the relevance of the inflammasome in the pathophysiology of MS.
NLRP3 has previously been highlighted to be of relevance to progression in MS and our study supports this.”
