Pleasure to attend such an amazing conference on macrophages and DCs. I am happy to present a poster (71) on the roles of cellular machanobiology on the phenotypes of synovial macrophages. #EMDS2024 #Vienna #mechanobiology #piezo1

Happy to announce the preprint of my paper on the protective roles of #PROS1 in the lungs infected by SARS-CoV-2. We showed that epithelium-derived PROS1 modulated both #epithelial and #immune cell responses during #viral infection.

Congratulations on the prize @marcdoo26, well deserved 🍻!!! Well done to the @bsicongress organisers for the great event and for the opportunity to present our work !!! #SIGNET24
#SIGNET2024
Had a blast, fantastic talks! Thanks to the organisers @bsicongress for the poster prize! :)
A fantastic week filled with the latest #immunology research at #BSI23!! This year I gave my first talk and Marcus presented his first poster at the Congress. Thanks to @bsicongress for organising this fantastic event. Well done @marcdoo26 !!
Want to learn about #PIEZO1 on synovial macrophages? @marcdoo26 is waiting at poster 321 on Tuesday 6pm to show you his recent findings #BSI23 @bsicongress @DrMariola #proudsupervisor
Happy to have completed the BD FACSAria Operator Course from @BDBiosciences. The course provided excellent #training and I have gained valuable #experience for #cell sorting !!!

THP-1 cells responded to vibrational stimulation by upregulating #PIEZO1 #mRNA. PIEZO1 upregulation was not associated with macrophage differentiation, but rather demonstrated the ability of human #monocytes to sense mechanical stimuli.

Check out this fantastic review, covering the recently identified synovial tissue macrophages and their contributions in joint homeostasis, Rheumatoid Arthritis and disease remission. Congratulations to authors @DrMariola and @SteAlivernini 👏👏
#Immunology #rheumatoidarthritis
We (@DrMariola @SteAlivernini) are happy to share our new review on synovial tissue macrophages and their role in maintaining homeostasis, driving joint inflammation and whether their biology can inform clinical practice.

Plato in #Glasgow: "τὰ γὰρ δὴ μεγάλα πάντα ἐπισφαλῆ, καὶ τὸ λεγόμενον τὰ καλὰ τῷ ὄντι χαλεπά". The real translation would be "For all great enterprises are prone to fail and, as the saying goes, fine things are in fact difficult". Turned out true for this bridge 😀

When you try to get some cool videos for presentation but cells are too lazy to do anything 🙄. Throwing few pseudopods around was the craziest things they did😀
#Jurkats
Polycystin 1 (red) expressed on Jurkat T cells. This protein has many roles in cell biology, one of which is mechanotransduction. This is a process by which cells are able to sense and respond to the mechanical stimuli in their environments
