A WashU Medicine mouse study shows that respiratory viruses can hide in lung immune cells after infection, creating inflammation that leads to chronic lung diseases such as asthma. https://t.co/PT3BnzbWJU

Very happy to finally share our work just published in @NatureMicrobiol ! Check it out if you're interested in virus-host interactions and long-term effects of respiratory viral infections!

[Ítalo Araújo Castro @italoacastro]

Excited to share our pre-print on paramyxovirus persistence in the lower respiratory tract! We show that persistence of viral products is maintained by innate immune cells, with long-term survival cells playing key roles in post-viral lung disease. Check it out!

Sharing our latest pre-print from @italoacastro and team showing persistence of viral products in lung innate immune cells after parainfluenza virus infection and its impact in post-viral lung pathology. Read for more!

Email I sent in response to @NatureComms´s request for me to act as a reviewer today (part 1 of 2).

#OpenAccess isn´t open if those of us in developing countries are economically excluded from publishing equitably.

Colocar mais armas nas ruas em um dos países que mais mata no mundo é colocar em risco a vida de muitas pessoas. Depois de mais de 40 regras publicadas, chegamos à marca de 1300 armas compradas por civis por dia. #CanetaGatilho

What a fabulous ending for a week full of good science and meetings with old/new friends ⁦@marjpontelli⁩ ⁦@poisondartfrog7⁩ ! Thank you #NSV2022 !! See you next time!!

[Marjorie C. Pontelli, PhD @marjpontelli]

The Whelan Lab @vsv512 had so much fun at the #NSV2022! We even got to hang out with former members @glycobrotein. Thanks for such a fantastic conference with excellent science and scientists. Até a próxima!

This study from Hiller et al. identifies a novel antiviral and inflammatory role for FGFs in the lung airway epithelium and confirms that early and robust IAV infection of alveolar cells results in more severe disease.
