Cell-type resolved protein atlas of brain lysosomes identifies SLC45A1-associated disease as a lysosomal disorder This study describes the cell-type-specific lysosomal proteome across the major brain cell types and identifies SLC45A1 as a neuron-specific lysosomal sugar exporter linked to lysosomal storage disease.

🧵(4/5) miR-146a-5p emerges as a consistent marker of pro-inflammatory activation across mouse + human iPSC microglia 🧫 and is detectable in microglial EVs during acute neuroinflammation.

🧵(3/5) Using our new ExoMap1 mouse 🐁 , we detect microglia-derived EVs in plasma for the first time. This lets us directly track CNS-derived vesicles in vivo.

🧵(2/5) First We find that microglia release EVs and non-vesicular particles with distinct α2,6-sialylation and small RNA signatures 🧬that change with their activation state.

🧵(1/5) Neuroinflammation drives many neurological diseases 🧠, but we still lack good non-invasive biomarkers. We asked: can microglia send detectable signals into the bloodstream🩸?

State-dependent release of extracellular particles with distinct α2,6-sialylation patterns and small RNA cargo related to neuroinflammation Neuroinflammation is a significant contributor to neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and related dementias; yet peripheral biomarkers for neuroinflammation...

🚨Our new preprint is out!

We reveal that #microglia release particles (#extracellularvesicles #exomeres #supermeres)with distinct α2,6-sialylation signatures and small RNA cargo depending on their state🧠✨

🧠 The Lipid #Brain Atlas is out now! If you think #lipids are boring and membranes are all the same, prepare to be surprised. Led by @lucafusarbassini.bsky.social with Giovanni D'Angelo's lab, we mapped membrane lipids in the mouse brain at high resolution.

I’m incredibly proud to share that I’ve been promoted to #Instructor!

I want to thank everyone who has supported me along the way-mentors who believed in me, colleagues and friends who stood by me, and my family who have always been my foundation. I wouldn’t be here without you!

some great starter packs for the #glia, #astrocyte, #oligodendrocyte, #microglia, #neuro researcher: gliasky, astrocytesky, microglia
But if you also like interactions between celltypes, please help this starter pack get started. Maybe someone can connect all of us in a feed?
