OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Chronic immune inflammation results from a failure to resolve persistent inflammatory stimuli. The resolution of inflammation is critically dependent on the carefully balanced orchestration of immune responses. “Inhibitory” KIR immune receptor interactions with HLA-class I have been implicated in diverse chronic inflammatory disorders including spondyloarthritis, Crohn’s disease and Pemphigus vulgaris. I will discuss how “inhibitory” KIR immune receptor interactions could promote inflammation using knowledge gained from our studies on HLA-B27 binding to immune receptors.
