Delighted to finally share our study - the result of a lot of hard work by Dr McClure and the last published before our team’s move to @EdinburghUni @EdinUni_IGC!

Novel insights into fibroblast taxonomy:

▶️ link between ontogeny and phenotypic diversity
▶️ functional specialization in response to injury
▶️ Sox5 and Foxo1 emerged as key transcription factors

Gdf5-lineage synovial #fibroblasts (SF) are key pathogenic in inflammatory #arthritis
IL-6 --> Yes-associated protein (Yap) complexing with Snail ➡️drive the invasiveness of SF

Just snow. For miles. A picture taken by film-maker/adventurer Kirk Watson on his flight home over the #Highlands to #Inverness Airport on Tuesday.

Interesting session in today's PGR conference! Well done to all presenters. #universityofaberdeen #ims

#YAP is a #mechanosensitive transcriptional activator with a critical role in #cancer, #regeneration & #organsize control. Interestingly, force applied to the nucleus directly drives YAP #nuclearimport by reducing mechanical restriction in nuclear pores. https://t.co/dBQBY0qENx
