Innate immune signalling pathways are crucial to maintaining tissue homeostasis. We have identified that cell death (apoptosis and necroptosis) and deregulated innate immune signalling circuits cause inflammation in the skin.

I will present a new mechanism of how crosstalk between innate immune sensing pathways in macrophages modulates immune responses and their potential implications during inflammation and cancer in the skin.
