Researchers discover key immune mechanism that helps control inflammatory response to infection

Monash University researchers have discovered a key mechanism in the body's immune system that helps control the inflammatory response to infection. The discovery could help pave the way for more targeted therapies in a range of inflammatory conditions, such as autoimmunity and neuroinflammatory disease.
