This Fermenting PikLZ Scientist card collectible featuring Bijijoo art helps offset the costs of the Napier Lab testing her hypothesis "in vivo' (in a living organism.) This next stage of experimentation on corrective therapy will be done with Blau syndrome mice.
BACKGROUND:
Dr. Napier's work on the rare disease Blau syndrome caught PikLZ attention as a great candidate for the very first scientist PikLZ collectibles.
Blau Syndrome is a rare auto-inflammatory disease that results in skin rash, arthritis and dermatitis. Although it is known that Blau is caused by a single DNA mutation in the gene NOD2 immunologically speaking we still have no idea why kids develop this disease. 100% of persons born with the mutation will develop Blau Syndrome. There are currently NO fast or effective ways to identify and diagnosis patients and there are NO treatments for Blau. If we can figure out what the mutated NOD2 protein is doing incorrectly, we might be able to treat these kids before they develop irreversible joint and eye damage.
The only way to develop diagnostics or treatments is if you know what is causing the disease. To solve this pickle of a problem, we need to help raise enough money for the Napier Lab to move this research forward.
Dr. Napier's work on the rare disease Blau syndrome caught PikLZ attention for the very first scientist PikLZ card collectibles featuring Bijijoo art.
The Napier Lab is focused on understanding the development of inflammatory diseases with a hope of identifying drug targets for future therapies. Her team is moving us closer to unlocking the role of how the NOD2 gene affects immunity. Because mutations in the NOD2 gene have been shown to track to all sorts of inflammatory syndromes (e.g., Crohn's, psoriatic arthritis, graft vs. host disease, uveitis, rheum arthritis, Yao syndrome, etc.,) supporting her work on Blau Syndrome could help develop other inflammatory syndrome treatments.
Let's support Dr. Napier's work by providing some early innovation funding that is "stuck in a pickle."
