Enterovirus infections may occur throughout the natural history of type 1 #diabetes and may be associated to islet cell HLA-I hyperexpression. @Teresa_IDF1, @SarahIBEx, @JuttaELaiho #T1D #DiabetesResearch link.springer.com/article/10.100… 🔓

Joint analysis of @DiabetesnPOD tissues finds #enterovirus (EV) RNA in pancreas &lymphoid tissues with selected EV-specific methods. #EV RNA in #T1D spleen was frequent with properties previously observed in persistent infections @hhyotylab @TampeUniMET link.springer.com/article/10.100… 🔓

Together with 8 #EHEN #exposome projects, we advocate for policymaking that fosters healthier urban environments. 🌍🏙️ #Science4Policy #HumanExposome HEDIMED for the EHEN Stakeholder event yesterday in Brussels:

Our joint effort paper with @NykterLab, @HHyotyLab, and the TEDDY group about RNA profiles in children prior to the type 1 diabetes-linked islet autoantibody appearance was selected as a highlight paper of last year. 👏🙂🏆 tinyurl.com/msr9vvsz Photo by Jukka Lehtiniemi.

Happy to share our paper out in Nature Immunology! Here we provide molecular level evidence that inhibiting transglutaminase 2 (TG2) is a very promising strategy to treat celiac disease (CeD). nature.com/articles/s4159… #celiacdisease #ZED1227 @celires_tau @TampereUniMET @TampereUni

An important milestone reached in the development of coxsackie B #vaccine against type 1 diabetes: Results of phase 1 human trial were published today showing good safety and immunogenicity. Mission continues! #T1D #enterovirus rdcu.be/dyYni

Are you a #postdoc interested in #immunology and how our immune system reacts to #enterovirus infection and #vaccination? Want to help find a prevention for #T1D? This could be an opportunity for you: ki.varbi.com/what:job/jobID… #postdocjobs @MFT_Diabetes @CIM_Sweden @karolinskainst

@KiWookKim816 @UNSW @nhmrc @HHyoty @professormcraig @maspenno @BetaCellCRE @theCFos @Row_Bull @jseden1 Looking forward to the collaboration! ☺️🤝

Last work-post for 23': Excited to lead @UNSW EU-@NHMRC Collaborative Project in 2024. Looking forward to working together with EU partners on HORIZON project led by @HHyoty @EU_Commission (€7.2M): "Enterovirus-linked #type1diabetes Exposed Mechanisms & Prevention (ENT1DEP)"

tuni.fi/en/news/develo… The press release of the work on @TampereUni news 📰 @NykterLab @RautajokiLab @TampereUniMET @NatureComms

Our new study shows that immunological pathways differ in different subtypes of #type1diabetes and the involvement of #enteroviruses in the initiation of the process.  go.nature.com/3Rdg5U2 Privileged to work with the talented people from the @NykterLab and @RautajokiLab 🙏

Probiotic intervention doesn't seem to affect beneficial intestinal protists in kids with #CeliacDisease autoimmunity. Surprisingly, the presence of the protists was inversely associated with gut-health-promoting bacteria. Read the new HEDIMED paper here!👇bit.ly/46mjxjp

To find associations between diseases (e.g. #T1D) and viral infections, we need different tools. Niila Jouppila has developed serological tools for enterovirus detection in his PhD work.🔬🧪 Listen to the live stream of the dissertation defence at 11 CET ➡️bit.ly/3FNmRt5

Congratulations @HHyoty and Dr. Virginia Stone @MFT_Diabetes for receiving the Johnny Ludvigsson price 2023 🥂👏🏻 Enterovirus i fokus när Barndiabetesfondens Johnny Ludvigsson-priser delas ut mynewsdesk.com/se/barndiabete…

📢Hey immunologists! Register by August 18th for Finnish-Japanese immunology symposium in Turku. 👉 bitly.ws/Kgi4 @UniTurku @AboAkademi @BioscienceTurku @BioCityTurku

Postdocs, check this out! 👇🏻

Researchers @BioscienceTurku and @InFLAMES_Health have identified a gene expression signature that can predict the progression of type 1 diabetes. One benefit of such predictive signature could be the ability to intervene earlier in the disease process. utu.fi/en/news/press-…
