We report that diazepam binding inhibitor (DBI) is a glial messenger mediating crosstalk between satellite glial cells (SGCs) and sensory neurons in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG). DBI is highly expressed in SGCs of mice, rats, and humans, but not in sensory neurons or most other DRG-resident cells. Knockdown of DBI results in a robust mechanical hypersensitivity without major effects on other sensory modalities.

Autoimmune diseases are commonly associated with a polygenic inheritance pattern. In rare instances, causal monogenic variants have been identified. The study by Liu et al. in this issue of the JCI provides an example of monogenic variants occurring in patients with IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD). The authors investigated a familial cluster of IgG4-RD that consisted of an affected father and two daughters; the mother was unaffected.
