🚨 New paper alert 🚨 Our Human Microglia Atlas (HuMicA) characterizes #microglia subpopulations across 6 distinct #neurologic diseases. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Never too late to celebrate a #NewYear with the team #epigenetics & #immunology

Thrilled to see this paper out!! 🧪 Spatial transcriptomics of brain aging and 'spatial aging clocks' identify cells that have pro-aging or pro-rejuvenating effects on their neighbors! Huge CONGRATS to Eric Sun and all authors! Fantastic collaboration with @jameszou.bsky.social! rdcu.be/d33uQ 🧵

Why do some people, despite SARS-CoV-2 exposure, not develop an infection? An ultra-early interferon response blocks Covid www.thelancet.com/journals/ebi... adds to protection from pre-existing, cross-reactive T cells in some people

IFNg stimulation induces SLAMF7 expression on myeloid cells in rheumatoid arthritis. SLAMF7 engagement (with recombinant SLAMF7) then leads to a strong increase in a large number of proinflammatory mediators. SLAMF7+ are found in a number of inflammatory conditions. 1/
