This new study highlights the critical role of #MyeloidCells in promoting #gbm progression. Led by @JasonMiska1, the findings published in @CellCellPress suggest that targeting these cells may be a promising route for treatment: https://t.co/IPip5XYBBw @NUFeinbergMed@LurieCancer
Lurie Cancer Center investigators at @NorthwesternMed discovered that immune cells in the #glioblastoma tumor microenvironment use a unique “feeding” mechanism that promotes tumor growth and immunosuppression, according to findings @Cell_Metabolism. https://t.co/qMJ4TD503w #BTSM
This study shows that electron transport chain generated ATP is shuttled into the cytoplasm triggering NLRP3 inflammasome activation - powerful implications for inflammation - congrats Navdeep, Peng and Jason! @Nature@NeurosurgeryNM@BrainTumorInst from

Important work by @JasonMiska1 just out in Science Advances. Polyamines drive myeloid cell survival by buffering intracellular pH to promote immunosuppression in glioblastoma https://t.co/IgOMoDALqI
Never happened before. The leader of the worlds’ most powerful nation, publicly taking of his mask while sick with a very infectious deadly virus during a pandemic, to send a message to his supporters that they can do the same. Probably one of the worst moments in world history.
This past week, @JasonMiska1, received his first @NIH#R01 grant entitled “Arginine metabolism regulates myeloid immune suppression in #glioblastoma”. The grant, in the amount of $1.9 million is one of the first of its kind in the dept, since it focuses on #tumor metabolism.
