Wdr1 and cofilin are necessary mediators of immune-cell-specific apoptosis triggered by Tecfidera

The mechanism-of-action of many electrohilic drugs remains poorly understood. Here, the authors use a redox-targeting approach to elucidate the basis for the innate immune cell toxicity of dimethyl fumarate, showing that it modifies Keap1 to trigger mitochondrial-targeted neutrophil/macrophage apopt...
