The loss of TBK1, or both TBK1 and the related kinase IKKε, results in uncontrolled cell death–driven inflammation. We show that TBK1/IKKε prevent premature cell death by limiting the activity of multiple death pathways in myeloid cells. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

The US is withdrawing from the Paris agreement and from the WHO, responsible for the eradication small pox, near eradication of polio and the Ebola vaccine amongst many other. This is a dark day for humanity. Sadly, it will be our children and the next generations that will suffer the consequences.

This week in #ScienceImmunology: Germinal Center B cells require asparagine (Asn) #metabolism for their function. GC B cells can acquire exogenous Asn from their local environment, but when Asn is limited, they utilise the enzyme asparginine synthetase. @ajclarke.bsky.social @yfy1.bsky.social

Thrilled to share our latest work on how the non-essential amino acid #asparagine metabolically regulates germinal centers. Huge thanks to my PhD supervisor @ajclarke.bsky.social, colleagues, and collaborators at the @ndorms.bsky.social @ox.ac.uk and @crick.ac.uk www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
