Allergen-induced airway matrix remodeling in mice can be prevented or reversed by targeting chitinase-like proteins | Science Immunology www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 🎉🎉 @hetompkins.bsky.social @drtesutherland.bsky.social @mattoburgess.bsky.social @james-ep.bsky.social @profjudiallen.bsky.social

Allergen-induced airway matrix remodeling in mice can be prevented or reversed by targeting chitinase-like proteins

Allergic airway matrix remodeling occurs independently of IL-13 and IL-17A and is driven instead by chitinase-like proteins.

Tony giving his Rooster Prize talk at HA2025

Congratulations Tony! 👏 @mcrcellmatrix.bsky.social

International Society of Hyaluronan Sciences@ishas-org.bsky.social · last yr.

The winner of the Rooster Prize for HA2025 is Professor Anthony Day - very well deserved and many congratulations

Finishing off a lovely few days with @dakinlabgroup.bsky.social in Oxford doing some tissue staining 💚 Thanks so much for hosting me Prof Dakin and Yao!

Prof Stephanie Dakin@dakinlabgroup.bsky.social · last yr.

Wonderful to host @becky-dodd.bsky.social @ndorms.bsky.social this week! Thanks so much for your fantastic lecture sharing insights on immune regulation of hyaluronan in the lung during challenge 🤩 gorgeous work

It was a pleasure to write this piece on HPV immunisation as part of our #CelebrateVaccines series 💙 Now more than ever, it is critical that we share evidence based resources on vaccination to help people make informed decisions about their health 🦠💉🌍

British Society for Immunology@britsocimm.bsky.social · last yr.

Cervical cancer is the 4th most common cancer in women: bit.ly/4gDCdk5. Thanks to the HPV vaccine, that’s changing. Find out how it has transformed cervical cancer prevention in the first blog of our #CelebrateVaccines series: bit.ly/4hXQSXF

Congratulations to Dr Georgia for an amazing viva success and thank you to her enthusiastic examiners.

Still time to apply to join our lab in Aberdeen as a post-doc, in a well-funded position. If you're interested in immune-ECM cross talk and want to use cutting edge spatial technologies, apply now. www.abdnjobs.co.uk/vacancy/rese...

Please spread the word and sign up for our exciting spring meeting in Nottingham with amazing speakers on the topic of ECM, immunity and infection. An exciting and developing field! paacr4.wixsite.com/bsmb-spring2...

2024 has been a fantastic year of lung/imm/mac papers with some critical insights on host/pathogenesis. I'm highlighting some papers that I found in this thread, perhaps we can build more immune niches on sky app with help of @rodrahimi.bsky.social who initiated discovery imm stack. 🧵 x/n. Let's go.

Congratulations @hetompkins.bsky.social so very proud of you 💜💜💜

Judi Allen@profjudiallen.bsky.social · 2y ago

Congratulations to Hannah!!! PhD viva done with no corrections. @drtesutherland.bsky.social very proud of her first PhD student. Allen lab is so privileged to have Hannah with us this past 2 years ago.

Join the Sutherland Lab in Aberdeen! We have a research fellow opening to explore IL-13 regulation of hyaluronan extracellular matrices drug lung injury, repair and chronic pathology with funding from @wellcometrust.bsky.social www.abdn.ac.uk/research/job...

🎉 the 1st paper from my post-doc is published 🎉 We found that #lunginjury caused by migration of N.brasiliensis induces an #IL-13 dependent #hyaluronan matrix. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Injury From Nematode Lung Migration Induces an IL‐13‐Dependent Hyaluronan Matrix

A consistent feature of lung injury is a rapid and sustained accumulation of hyaluronan (HA). The rodent gut-dwelling nematode Nippostrongylus brasiliensis (Nb) induces tissue damage as it migrates t....
