What protects some people from leukemia? Thrilled to share my work at @bloodgenes.bsky.social lab, now published in @science.org. We identify an inherited genetic variant that protects stem cells from blood cancers by reducing risk of CHIP. t.co/ExgWIJQe6y 🧵👇(1/n)

Already 53 phenomenal papers published in the @jhumimmunity.org ! Look it up and submit your best papers to the only journal focused on human inborn errors of immunity, their phenocopies, and related topics in human immunology: rupress.org/jhi

Human genetic influences on early B cell development. New review from Anna-Lena Neehus (@alneehus.bsky.social‬), Neil Romberg (@romberglab.bsky.social‬), and Vijay Sankaran (@bloodgenes.bsky.social‬) @bostonchildrens.bsky.social‬: rupress.org/jhi/article/...

@alneehus.bsky.social‬, @romberglab.bsky.social‬ and @bloodgenes.bsky.social‬ review how genetic variation impacts early B cell development, & discuss inherited rare variants & more common polymorphisms that predispose to B cell-related immune disorders & malignancies rupress.org/jhi/article/...

A must-read for anyone interested in human B cell physiology or pathology !

Delighted to have our work on Polygenic Modifiers of #TelomereBiologyDisorders, led by Michael Poeschla, @sashagusevposts.bsky.social, @mitchiela.bsky.social, @sharonsavage.bsky.social, @tummalalab.bsky.social, + co, published in @jclinical-invest.bsky.social today: www.jci.org/articles/vie...

📢📢Published today in @jem.org 📢📢 New human inborn error of immunity. We describe the first reported human with a monogenic disorder caused by the disruption of ZBTB7B, which encodes the transcription factor ThPOK. rupress.org/jem/article/... @ubcmedicine.bsky.social @bcchresearch.bsky.social

Out today in @science.org! What if you could chart cells' regulatory programs at unprecedented resolution? In my work with Jorge Martin-Rufino from the @bloodgenes.bsky.social lab, we dissect the genome’s control circuits and find where key genetic variation hides bit.ly/3YhBMoO

What protects individuals from developing blood cancers? Thrilled to share my work in @bloodgenes.bsky.social lab, describing inherited resilience protecting blood stem cells from clonal hematopoiesis by modifying RNA regulation. 🧵👇 (1/n) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

#WeekendRead! #LiveForever! Ramalingam Butler &co show @ #Science #Immunology that during #inflammaging thrombospondin-1 drives #interferon signatures & reduces detoxification pathways in hematopoietic stem cells causing loss of self-renewal, increased myeloid differentiation & systemic inflammation

Stem cell-like states confer poor outcomes in blood cancer—but what mechanisms drive this and how can they be therapeutically targeted? In our new preprint, we show how a single TF represses one enhancer to maintain a subset of high-risk leukemias: 🧵👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Delighted to have our work led by #RichardVoit from our group featured on the cover of #CellStemCell today. Artwork by the amazing @drawimpacts.bsky.social: www.cell.com/cell-stem-ce... Stay tuned as we work on initiating a clinical trial for this approach!
