Peripheral cancer attenuates amyloid pathology in Alzheimer’s disease via cystatin-c activation of TREM2 Peripheral cancer inhibits amyloid pathology and rescues cognition of Alzheimer’s disease through secretion of cystatin-c (Cyst-C), which binds amyloid oligomers and activates TREM2 in microglia and e...

Not on my bingo card - Lung Cancer prevents amyloid plaques in a mouse model of Alzheimer's via Cystatin-C activation of TREM2 #CancerFightingDementia #WTH #BiologyIsWild 😱 www.cell.com/cell/abstrac...?

Statistically we are mostly red blood cells and platelets (count: 80-90%) and they don't even have a nucleus. #BiologyIsWild #CellBiology

Excited to see this paper out. Durability is the holy grail of vaccine design. 💉 Here, we made the unexpected discovery that megakaryocytes, the cells that produce wound-healing platelets, can support long lasting vaccine immunity! #BiologyIsWild! 🧬🔬 Glad I could be part of this wonderful team!
