Why Some People Age Like Fine Wine
CD8 cells in the immune system appear to reflect how healthy one's old age will likely be and could lead to a diagnostic test of aging. thedoctorwillseeyounow.com/c… #Aging #agingwell #immunity @ImmunityCP #immunehealth #inflammation #Granzymes #CD8

Why does it take repeated exposures to become allergic, and why does one allergy lead to others? I talked with Claudia Hammond on BBC Health Check about our new @ImmunityCP paper: sensory neurons in mice remember allergen exposure. 🎧 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

What comes after M1/M2? In our Perspective with @FGinhoux in @ImmunityCP we explore how single-cell technologies and AI can decode the gene programs macrophages use across tissues & microenvironments, and how this modular view could transform immunotherapy

This @ImmunityCP study found that #microglia exhibited acute and progressive morphological responses that preceded but paralleled ethanol-induced sedation.

First authors Evi Paouri and Sarah Stanko show that genetic deletion of microglial Myd88 protect against ethanol-induced microglial reactivity, neuronal damage and dysfunction, intoxication, and motor impairments by preventing #ECM disruption.

Using temporal multi-omics, biomechanical profiling, and spatial fate mapping in #colitis models, @WeizmannScience researchers showed that colonic #ECM underwent lasting pathological reprogramming following inflammation.

Their findings, published in @ImmunityCP, redefine the ECM as a long-lived instructive compartment that encodes injury memory and promotes maladaptive regeneration.

Can our immune system remember a virus for 20 years? Prof. Zhang Linqi’s Innovative Tsinghua team @MedTsinghua found that SARS-CoV-1 immune memory can endure for two decades in @ImmunityCP, providing new insights for broader vaccines with @HKUniversity and other collaborators.

Out in @ImmunityCP : We expanded to >2,500 TCRs and 8 epitopes and find that ~half of TCR-pMHC pairs do not validate. On clean data, we show that modeling reactivity with AF3 & tcrdist3 is more feasible than assumed. Is your model better? Join IMMREP26! 🧵

It's not the models, it's the data!
We show that a substantial proportion of a widely used TCR-pMHC database does not functionally validate, causing underestimation of performance of TCR-pMHC prediction models.🧵

A seminal paper on aging of our immune system was just published. From study of over 12 million single-cells in 8 cohorts, >2,600 individuals, ranging in age from 18 to 98. Yielding a practical blood test. And much more.

A remarkable study of 12 million single-cells (RNAseq) from 8 cohorts plus proteomics to determine the immune cells linked to healthy aging. Major findings included:
—thymic involution is central (decline in naive T cells and thymic emigrants)
—elevated immune system activation, inflammaging
—CD8+ memory cells (GZMB+) high frequency
—CMV seropositivity and chronic disease

💡 What sets the size of a germinal center? — why lymphatics of course 😉
Our new study with Carla Nowosad reveals how lymphatic remodeling constrains germinal center growth and shapes the quality of the antibody response. @ImmunityCP @nyugrossman
