Interesting and confirm important and underappreciated role of CD8 T cells in TB..... Location Location Location...... Our recent work (in revision) also demonstrates the role of NR4A1 as a checkpoint in regulating CD8 T cell localization & effectivity

Lovely work from the Kupz lab!

We wanted to put over a decade of advances on the immunology surrounding fetal Zika infection in context in our review "Immune mechanisms of congenital Zika syndrome" @SciImmunology. So happy to see it's #openaccess! written with @Abhay_R_ https://t.co/mjGyY0G8AA

Recent work by @ASTARsg labs headed by @oehlerslab @Lab_AmitSinghal and WANG Yue's labs.

In this work, Denise Wee and colleagues demonstrate that primary colonization by mycobacterium M. marinum increases super-infection by M. abscessus in the zebrafish model. They show that opportunistic pathogens passively colonize pre-existing caseous granulomas through macrophage-mediated, ESX1-dependent carriage of M. abscessus into pre-existing caseous granulomas. Here, they show evidence of M. abscessus adaptation to within the necrotic granuloma.

Had a reminder by my colleague @Lab_AmitSinghal that two years ago to this day our faculty had a retreat in my medieval village of Noyers-sur-Serein. Missing this clunky old house! 🏰 ❤️

It took us long to finish this.....great collaboration with several people 🙏
