Neutrophil-specific deletion of the CARD9 gene expression regulator suppresses autoantibody-induced inflammation in vivo

Neutrophils play an important role in antimicrobial host defence but can also contribute to non-infectious inflammatory processes. Here the authors show that adaptor protein CARD9 expressed in neutrophils is involved in the development of sterile auto-antibody-mediated inflammatory reactions.
