MRC funded group at the University of Edinburgh. T cells - epithelial interaction during regeneration. Views are my own.

A paper from our lab!

In this paper, we show that Treg determines efficiency of bile duct regeneration, unpicking PSC pathogenesis. Thanks to the support from @The_MRC and the PSC Partners Seeking A Cure , and @PSCPartnersCa

6. Combining IL2c with ox40L blockade increases Treg numbers and stability, and that makes bile duct regeneration more effective.

Last day of #isscr23 Boston. Fruitful meeting. Can’t wait to go home, don’t think my post brexit pounds can afford this place any longer..

[Wei-Yu Lu @WeiYu_Lu]

One of the talks at #ISSCR2023 is so popular that securities came in rudely and drove the standing audiences out! #bcec Boston

[Wei-Yu Lu @WeiYu_Lu]

Looking forward to more eye opening stuff at the ISSCR23 #ISSCR2023
