Mathieu Rodero

Research Scientist, CNRS

Since my PhD in 2008, I have been studying immunology in various models of mice and human inflammatory diseases (>70 pubications, 4000 citations. IF : 31 – WOS). In 2019 I was appointed by CNRS in order to foster the development of new therapy and diagnosis tools for inflammatory and auto immune conditions. Our projects, based on a collaborative, multidisciplinary and translational approaches combine access to state of the art technology to material of patients with rare diseases.

Research Projects

Pathophysiology of juvenile dermatomyositis.

Juvenile dermatomyositis is a rare auto immune disease of unknown origin characterized by sustained overproduction of type I interferons. We are more specifically interested in the mechanisms responsible for this type I interferon overproduction/signature, and its impact on disease progression and severity. In line with this questioning, we are involved in clinical trials evaluating the benefit of inhibitors of interferon signalling in these patients.

Genotype / phenotype association in genetic auto-inflammatory diseases.

Numerous genes have been associated with inflammatory diseases. Interestingly, mutations in distinct domains of a same protein can be associated with distinct diseases, or variable manifestation of a same disease. We are interested in the molecular and cellular alterations resulting from mutations in different domains of a same protein, and its association with clinical features.

Pathophysiology of adult idiopathic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

The pathophysiology of most non-genetic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases is still poorly understood. We aim to identify deregulations of specific pathways within professional immune cells in patients suffering from idiopathic inflammatory or autoimmune diseases. This work should provide new insights into the mechanisms leading to the onset of the diseases and help identify new therapeutic targets or markers that predict the response to treatments
