Brief description IL-1? protein is required to combat infection but also contributes to inflammatory diseases, such as Rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes. Understanding how IL-1? is produced is therefore critical to the development of better therapeutics for these conditions. We have identified a new pathway involving the protein RIP3 that can cause IL-1? activation. This project will examine how this pathway is molecularly regulated and determine its importance in inflammatory disease models.
