🧬 CD28 vs. TCR: not a one-size-fits-all signal.

New study by Cayman Williams et al. shows CD28 co-stimulation shapes naïve & memory CD4⁺ T cells differently - and can even act independently of TCR in memory cells.

Das ist ja mal cool: Man kann seine eigene Straße bei dutchcyclinglifestyle.com/imagine eingeben und sich daraus Phantasie-Bilder einer Fahrrad- und Fußgänger-freundlichen, begrünten Straße erstellen lassen.

Geht mit Google Maps oder eigenen Fotos.

Cool work from Sue Kaech's group.

"Here we show a new link between the stress-associated catecholamines and the progression of T cell exhaustion through the β1-adrenergic receptor ADRB1." #Immunosky
The β1-adrenergic receptor links sympathetic nerves to T cell exhaustion - Nature
Stress-associated catecholamines promote CD8+ T cell exhaustion through the β1-adrenergic receptor, and blocking β-adrenergic signalling may help restore anti-tumour functions.

Macrophage immune memory in inflammatory arthritis

"Pro-inflammatory cytokines, DAMPs & PAMPS constitute triggers that induce metabolic and epigenetic reprogramming, leading to #macrophage memory in inflammatory arthritis."

Normalerweise hat man ja ein starkes #Erdbeben und schwächere Nachbeben.

Bei der Bebenserie in #Herat folgten aber drei starke Beben aufeinander, und das in einer historisch erdbebenarmen Zone.

Ich hab erklärt, was da tektonisch passiert ist.

So etwas kann btw auch in Deutschland passieren.

A plate of iced 'periodic table' sugar cookies. Each one is a different element, with the two-letter abbreviation and molecular number iced in black icing. No lanthanides or actinides though!
