Check out my new paper! We mapped food protein ligands of intestinal Tregs and determined the role of these Tregs in oral tolerance: science.org/doi/10.1126/scii… #Immunology #FoodAllergies #LifeSciences

Identification and characterization of dietary antigens in oral tolerance

Immunodominant epitopes from seed storage proteins are a target of intestinal regulatory T cells that modulate immune challenge to food.

I am thrilled to announce that I am launching my lab at the Salk Institute in September! The Blum lab will study the physiological effects of plant-derived molecules, with a particular focus on the mammalian immune system.
