Excited to share that our latest research published in @NatureCVR! We looked at Y chromosome genes in leukocytes and found UTY as an effector locus on the Y chromosome. Knockout of UTY promotes epigenetic changes in monocytes that promotes profibortic polarization of macrophages

In Brief: Our research shows that Cx43 plays a vital role in the adult SVZ by regulating neural stem cell activation and proliferation through its expression in vascular endothelial cells. Cx43 achieves this effect via its cytoplasmic tail and ERK activation.

I'm excited to announce the publication of my latest article from @HirschiLab , titled "Connexin-43 mediated Neurovascular Interactions regulate Neurogenesis in the Adult brain subventricular zone," in Cell Reports. @uva_ec @UVa_CellBio @UVACVRC

@MarieBillaud @conn_pann_fun I know and if I’m not mistaken you even wrote it in your thesis (my former bible) that they have a cannelé shape!

[Nafiisha Genet @nafiishaGenet]

Research is hard but also rewarding! Thank you #AHA for funding my #CDA!

[Nick Chavkin @nickchavkin]

Extremely grateful to the #AHA for funding my Career Development Award proposal to study how age-related hematopoietic loss of the Y chromosome promotes cardiac fibrosis and heart failure. I'm very appreciative of my mentoring team and the strong training environment at @UVACVRC!
