Butyrate and propionate are microbial danger signals that activate the NLRP3 inflammasome in human macrophages upon TLR stimulation https://t.co/n3Ogx7gdla
🚨 New research alert from the Gote-SchnieringLab (@schniering_j) from our LPM cluster!🚨. Their study in JCI Insight shows that radioproteomics can non-invasively identify molecular responses to antifibrotic treatments in pulmonary fibrosis. Check out the full study here:
A vaccine that is effective in the elderly. Pleased to share our study on the use of hyperactivator adjuvants to stimulate anti-tumor immunity in the young and old. All other vaccine adjuvants, and even checkpoint inhibitors, failed to do so.

REVIEW | Nguyen & Corvera (@UMassDiabetes)
The authors review changes that occur in adipose tissue during #aging, discuss potential mechanisms by which these changes impact metabolism, immunity & longevity, & highlight therapeutic opportunities.

IgG as driver of metabolic aging? Study reports IgG accumulation in adipose tissues with age, causing macrophage-driven fibrosis and insulin resistance. Caloric restriction and blockers of IgG recycling restore metabolism by reducing IgG levels in aged WAT https://t.co/VL61Ib6937
Knight Initiative director Tony Wyss-Coray (@wysscoray) and others are leading the development of a test measuring organ-specific proteins in the blood as a simple and sensible way to estimate biological age.

The first cellular map of a mammalian brain is here. 🧠✨
Over 6 years and 32 million cells in the making, the complete adult mouse brain cell-type atlas reveals astonishing diversity and regional specificity.

Thrilled to see our map of the aging mouse brain published in @CellCellPress. We find that white matter tracts are hotspots of brain aging, where (micro)glia appear to age faster. Thanks to @wysscoray and an incredible team for getting this done!

Platelets are a signal for klotho!!! Incredible body of work led by @park_cana. We found that longevity factor #klotho increases multiple platelet factors including PF4. PF4 permeates the brain and enhances cognition in young and old mice. @NatureAging https://t.co/sVKINPA83S
Excited to share our work out now out in @Nature ! @VilledaLab@UCSFAging @SCAgingBrain
