Great pleasure to be part of the European Society for Medical Oncology Immunooncology meeting in London #esmoimmuno25 as a scientific committee member, chair and invited speaker. The first day already kicks off with brilliant talks on tertiary lymphoid structures and triads as niches for anti-tumoral activiation in the tissue. A packed auditorium and exciting discussions with Samra Turajlić taking the stage right now. #tls #immunobiology #oncology #science #health https://www.esmo.org/

🧬✨ Did you know a safer way to prevent deadly graft-versus-host disease (#GvHD) during bone marrow transplants may lie in reshaping the immune system? Megan Molina & Emmanuel Katsanis’s work shows that using bendamustine (BEN) with radiation helps prepare the body for bone marrow transplant while reducing harmful immune reactions.

BEN+TBI compared to CY+TBI conditioning results in higher proportions of CD103+ cDC1s and robust accumulation of pre-cDC1s. Data shown is from the same mice as in Figure 2. (A) Representative flow cytometry gating of the splenic CD103+ cDC1 population on day 0, showing the FMO control. (B) Quantification of percent CD103+ cDC1s on days 0, +1 and +3 are shown from BEN+TBI or CY+TBI conditioned mice. Naïve mice were used as controls. (C) Total cell numbers of CD103+ cDC1 on day 0 are shown. Representative histograms, percent and MFI among cells positively expressing the activation markers

Blurring the lines between retrotransposons & viruses!

sORF2 enables envelope-independent, direct cell-to-cell transmission of retrotransposons in Drosophila, challenging our understanding of mobile genetic elements.

Defence mechanism inception!

Listeria prophages protect their host bacteria with anti-phage systems, leaving them susceptible to their own defence systems - read how this may actually be an evolutionary advantage!
