First #faculty #interview is over, albeit with a nay. Great pleasure to discuss my science and meet the smart investigators at the Immunology Center of GA! Drs. Ley and Hedrick are building a fantastic team. Looking forward to find a new home for my ACS grant (~$1M, 4y, 10% #indirects). Stay tuned!

Modular and Nondisturbing Chimeric Adaptor Protein for Surface Chemistry of Small Extracellular Vesicles Current chemical strategies for modifying the surface of extracellular vesicles (sEVs) often struggle to balance efficient functionalization with preserving structural integrity. Here, we present a mo...

Exciting to see more engineering of #EVs toward therapeutic solutions.

Unlocking the Role of Senescent Cell–Derived Extracellular Vesicles in Immune-Mediated Tumor Suppression Senescence, a state of stable cell-cycle arrest, plays a dual role in cancer by suppressing tumor growth while potentially promoting relapse through its secretome, including senescence-associated secr...

Our recent work on #extracellularvesicles in #aging and #cancer #recurrence received a nice commentary from Dr. Sonia Melo! Thank you

Huge thanks to Cancer Research UK (CRUK) for jumpstarting this project back in 2020, and to OHSU CDCB T32 support to Tahereh Ziglari, the lead scientist of this study. This work would have not been possible without her dedication and hard work.

These findings support the use of senescent cell EVs as a novel immunotherapy to prevent or treat cancer #relapse.

We found that senescent cells release lots of EVs, which recruit immune cell types involved in antigen presentation. Senescent cell EVs seem to support immune synapse formation with CD4 #Tcells, and both were required to ultimately remove senescent cells and avoid tumor recurrence.

In this paper, we elucidate the roles of #extracellularvesicles (#EVs) in #cell #senescence, which is important in the context of tumor #recurrence after #chemotherapy.

3. What about the subcapsular sinus? What differences do you observe there between NN and NP?

2. I understand segmentation may have been limiting, with only 35k cells per section? 2.5M over 70 samples? Unfortunately that is a common limitation of current analysis pipelines, it is unclear how this may impact the results. Thoughts?

Check out this amazing manuscript from Dr. Keren. I fully empathize with the amount of work that goes into this kind of studies! A few thoughts after skimming it: I'd love to know if the organization of GCs into DZ and LZ differs between NN and NP, as we saw in our preprint;
