Still’s disease is an inflammatory syndrome linked to the development of further immune dysregulation and hypercytokinaemia termed macrophage activation syndrome. Here the authors implicate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 in murine models of Still’s disease and macrophage activation syndrome, and provide associations with clinical cases in patients
