Type I interferon drives T cell cytotoxicity by upregulation of interferon regulatory factor 7 in autoimmune kidney diseases in mice

Wang H, Engesser J,  et al., Nat Commun 2025
Glomerulonephritis is a frequent complication of autoimmune diseases, and involves aberrant activation of immune cells, but the underlying insights remain unclear. Here the authors use both patient data and a mouse glomerulonephritis model to show that increased type I interferon may expand a subset of pro-inflammatory T cells for subsequent kidney pathology.
