"Treatment with a TRPV4 antagonist inhibited barrier leakage and reversed pathology, suggesting a therapeutic strategy to treat TRPV4 associated motor neuropathies!"
After many years of amazing work, Dr. Jeremy Sullivan's paper (@SumnerLab ) is finally out and TRPV4 expression in brainstem blood vessels made the cover!

This week's new issue of #ScienceTranslationalMedicine has arrived!
Epigenetic clues can predict the risk of kidney failure in patients with type 1 diabetes, an experimental antiviral neutralizes an array of coronaviruses in mice, and more. https://t.co/NE70MeaFWb
"Sullivan et al. used mouse models to show that TRPV4 gain-of-function mutations in endothelial cells led to focal disruptions of bloodโspinal cord barrier, motor neuron loss, and the development of neurological symptoms resembling motor neuropathies."
Gain-of-function mutations of TRPV4 acting in endothelial cells drive blood-CNS barrier breakdown and motor neuron degeneration in mice

@sblizarraga@UofSCBiology Congrats Sofia and to all of the Lizarraga lab!! So excited to see this work published and to have had the opportunity to contribute to this research with my @SCHonorsCollege thesis ๐
Excited to share our work on ASH1L in human neuronal development!! ๐งฌ๐ง @ Molecular Psychiatry https://t.co/NvCFVuoPK9 ๐ฅณ ๐ฅณ Congratulations to awesome co-1st authors twitterless Sunny Cheon & Allie Culver & all co-authors (next tweet)!! https://t.co/wVqNNSwtQn @UofSCBiology
The subject of this painting is Christina Olson, Wyeth's neighbor and friend. Olson developed a degenerative muscle condition and preferred crawling โas depictedโ rather than a wheelchair. The MOMA has a great video exploring this piece and disability: https://t.co/uZTGDnOGTs
@LinvilleRaleigh I sometimes use this database to compare mouse endothelial transcriptomes from the brain, heart, and lung! https://t.co/RlEF6o6Ipk
This database is also useful in comparing gene expression in different regions/cell types of the mouse brain: https://t.co/Lay2xkUDz1
