Excited to share our most recent pre-print on the role of mycoviruses in triggering the antifungal MAVS-dependent interferon response and their role in regulating chronic allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) disease severity.

👉 HIF activity prevents proper macrophage maturation
Deleting VHL → stabilizes HIFs → immature AM phenotype
Only removing BOTH HIF-1α + HIF-2α fully restores identity
👉 HIF signaling is the dominant driver downstream of VHL

#InterferonPower! #InflammasomePower! 💥With @kjena21 &co we show @NatImmunol that our fungal adjuvant #Mannadjuvant, via IL1 & IFNs, prolongs & potentiates protection of #mRNA #vaccines, broadening it to new variants & overcoming antigenic imprinting! 👉 https://t.co/G5BxPDMRKW

[Ivan Zanoni @Lo_Zanzi]

#WeekendRead! #InterferonPower! Cook, Green &co show @JCellBiol that macrophage cell #volume controls their inflammatory response & that macrophage #swelling increases IFN induction synergizing with pathogen-associated molecular pathways!

Latest data from the lab out now in mBio. We show that the antibiotic vancomycin directly impairs antifungal function of macrophages via mitochondrial dysfunction. Lots of lovely imaging in this one from @EbRyhmer ! Check it out here:

🚨Our newest preprint on the role of iron overload in intiating Influenza-Associated Pulmonary Aspergillosis (IAPA) that was led by recent @MCBDartmouth graduate Dr. Madeleine Grau! https://t.co/iotF5g21nR

[Ragon Institute @ragoninstitute]

A new study from the Dang Lab at the Ragon Institute, published in the Journal of Experimental Medicine, has found that the body's immune system inadvertently protects a dangerous fungus from being destroyed.

[Arturo Casadevall @ACasadevall1]

Fungal diseases are notoriously difficult to treat because these often occur in the setting of impaired immunity. Improving outcomes is likely to require developing immunotherapies. The first conference devoted to this topic will occur this summer.
