🍹Sharma, Jiao et al. report glycosylation of small RNAs within #exosomes and propose a glycosylation-dependent mechanism for #RNA targeting into exosomes, which may influence intercellular communication and RNA stability in the extracellular environment. 👉https://rdcu.be/eykKY bit.ly/455vyuP

"(...) it is unclear whether NET-mediated vascular occlusion actively drives necrosis & how this in turn would affect metastasis. Here we examined how tumours become necrotic, not by passively outgrowing the nutrient supply but by actively altering haematopoiesis to favour intravasc. NET formation"

Our latest work combines human gut epithelial #organoid culture with experimental #Shigella #infections, transposon mutagenesis, and statistical modeling. This has led to the mapping of the comprehensive geneset that drives Shigella epithelial colonization. Out @natgenet.nature.com: rdcu.be/eqGgf

#WeekendRead! #BeyondNETosis! @caroleparentlab.bsky.social @sbarya.bsky.social &co show @natcellbio.nature.com that neutrophils can secrete nuclear-derived exosomes containing LTB4 & DNA which direct migration but at also favor inflammation resolution via neutrophil retrotransmigration!

Our paper describing the creation of a nationwide core facility for bioimage analysis if out in @plos Computational Biology! 🎉✌️ journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol... So happy about this paper and how the work turned out. A small thread 👇 #bioimageanalysis #corefacility
