How do cells navigate up gradients of adhesive proteins? 🤔 Termed "Haptotaxis", this effect is ubiquitous in cell migration, but it's mechanism was poorly understood We show that passive friction directs cells & explains complex trajectories on gradients 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Kaska Koltowska @uu.se has identified unique DNA sequences, enhancers, which are active in lymphatic vessels. She hopes that new research will reveal new hidden secrets of the lymphatic vessel formation #research #lymphedema #medicine @lymphaticslab.bsky.social tinyurl.com/yfk7ett5

Pleased to update this - The paper is published in Cell Reports! A long road for this one, the paper grew exponentially and evolved over a couple of years. Thanks to @makris1.bsky.social for sticking with it to untangle all the new data! @cp-cellreports.bsky.social www.cell.com/cell-reports...

The academic community has looked at how artificial-intelligence tools help researchers to write papers, but not how they distort the literature scientists choose to cite, says Zhicheng Lin go.nature.com/45X3Imr

Excited to share our new research on lymph node stromal cell responses to vaccines! Research performed in @salmilab.bsky.social with excellent collaborators. @utu.fi @medicity.bsky.social @inflames-flagship.bsky.social www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Not all chemokine signaling is about cell migration! In mouse erythroblasts, CXCL12-bound CXCR4 enters the nucleus to control gene transcription, trigger calcium bursts, and drive red blood cell formation—especially enucleation. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Our paper is out! Kudos to 1st authors Mir Howlader, who received a @weillcornell.bsky.social Rachele Prize for this work, former Peds Rheum fellow William Ambler, and all co-authors! @jclinical-invest.bsky.social @wcm-imp.bsky.social @lupusresearch.bsky.social #lymphatic #stromal #photosensitivity

@benjbroom.bsky.social et al. @groomlab.bsky.social show that early type I interferon blockade alters CXCR3 chemokine regulation & cell location to promote an antigen-dependent CD8+ T cell transition of precursor of exhausted T cells to stem cell–like memory CD8+ T cells rupress.org/jem/article/...

Early Notch signals from fibroblastic reticular cells program effector CD8+ T cell differentiation, say Dave Maurice De Sousa, Eric Perkey, Laure Le Corre, Ivan Maillard, Nathalie Labrecque @umontreal.ca and colleagues: rupress.org/jem/article/... #InfectiousDisease #LymphocyteBiology

The oak-leaf cell shape of capillary LECs has been described centuries ago. However using the R26-iMb line developed by @ruibenedito.bsky.social enabled us to illuminate individual cells and their overlaps. This analysis showed that overlaps shrink in response to increased fluid volume.

Finally used "Porto" to migrate our latest X tweets to BlueSky. Below our latest iFlpMosaics paper, presented in this platform for the first time. It enables ratiometric single cell mosaic functional genetics.
