Sylviane Muller (FR). Treating Lupus by Targeting T-Cells
Description
The invention by French immunologist Sylviane Muller and her team at the National Centre for Scientific Research in Paris enables a new treatment approach for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an incurable autoimmune disease. Instead of suppressing the immune system in its entirety, the drug marketed as Lupuzor specifically targets so-called T-cells associated with lupus symptoms. The mechanism behind Muller’s invention could also be leveraged in drugs against other illnesses – both autoimmune and non-autoimmune diseases.
