A large dataset we hope is helpful for patients who may have CAPS, an #autoinflammatory condition associated with genetic variants in NLRP3. Lots of "variants of uncertain significance" now have a specific readout from our in vitro assay which can help with clinical diagnosis. rdcu.be/d9iRG

What Happens When Some Cells Are More Dad Than Mom (and Vice Versa)?
A new study shows that some of our cells favor genes of one parent or the other and can explain a longstanding mystery of why some people with disease-causing genes experience no symptoms.
