HFD drives expulsion of Whipworm via the IL-33/ST2 axis - crazy but it's true! 👉👉 sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Delighted to see this from John Worthington, Grencisgroup @MucusMan Stefano Colombo 🇮🇹🇪🇺 marytozer.bsky.social adura faniyi megan 🪱 & others now Mucosal Immunology & happy to have helped

Out Now in Mucosal Immunology Worthington, Grencis and Thornton labs show that a high fat diet allows clearance of a usually chronic T. muris “whipworm” infection

New exciting work from Png Loke lab in collaboration with Khanna Lab and our lab (Keenan Lacey). Single-cell analysis of CX3CR1+ cells reveal a pathogenic role for BIRC5+ myeloid proliferating cells driven by Staphylococcus aureus leukotoxins biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Another new preprint on biorxiv from Bola Oyesola, P'ng Loke, @Grahammunology, me, et al! In this one, we show that interactions between genotype and environment can shape several aspects of mouse immune phenotype in significant ways: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/

Exposure to fungi can help sterile laboratory mice better model specific features of the human immune system, finds new research from Cadwell Lab @Grahammunology Png Loke. scim.ag/36V

Delighted to share our recent Nature Immunology study led by Yuanyuan Gao, Yan Wang, and Daniel, showing that transcription factor EGR2 controls tissue- and disease-specific functions in pathogenic Th17 cells in the CNS. Many thanks to our collaborators!!! rdcu.be/dgL4p

Fantastic start to BOP immunology with great talks from Emma and Jude, successful flow cytometry, and sunsets on the beach!

New work in mice indicates that a history of parasitic infection correlates with improved anti-SARS-CoV-2 responses in the lungs because of enduring changes to alveolar macrophages. Kerry Hilligan Png Loke Read more: scim.ag/3H8

Our preprint has become a paper in Science Advances! Very excited that “Social-spatiotemporal association predicts immunological similarity in rewilded mice” w/ Bola Oyesola, @Grahammunology Png Loke is finally out in the world. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Thread below...
