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.

🚨 A new £50M MRC Centre at @manchester.ac.uk and @ox.ac.uk will explore how pollution, microbes & other environmental exposures rewire our immune system and cause chronic inflammatory diseases. #Exposome #ImmunoSky sites.manchester.ac.uk/lydia-becker...

New £50m MRC Centre to study how environmental exposures cause chronic inflammatory diseases

A groundbreaking £50M research centre at Manchester and Oxford will explore how environmental exposures, like pollution and microbes, rewire our immune system and drive chronic inflammatory diseases.

Super excited to announce that MRC has funded a new Centre of Research Excellence in Exposome Immunology. Working together, Manchester and Oxford are going to tackle a major challenge of our times. For those who wonder what the Exposome is - see yesterday's posts! www.ukri.org/news/centre-...

Centre to study how exposome causes chronic inflammatory disease

A new Medical Research Council (MRC) centre will investigate how the environment interacts with our immune system to trigger chronic inflammatory diseases.

I'm very pleased to have two lab positions open this week, to join our team looking at immune regulation in infection and co-infection. We're especially interested in tissue-based immunity, cytokine regulation and immune metabolism. Join us! Postdoc (3y) and research technician (12mo) posts open.

We're based in the Ashworth Laboratories, King's Buildings, University of Edinburgh. Photo shows the main staircase in the entrance to the Ashworth, stone steps from the 1920s, decorated with a series of bright, colurful banners depicting the science that's tackled in the building.

What a great way to start this account and end the week: our preprint describing how dermal γδ T cells mediate a skin-lung axis during parasite infection in mice is online! I'm excited to show the findings of my main postdoc project with @profjudiallen.bsky.social!🧵👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Migratory dermal gamma delta T cells determine the balance between lung immunity and tissue damage during Nippostrongylus brasiliensis infection

Many helminth parasites migrate through multiple host organs during infection but how immunity is regulated across these tissues is still poorly understood. To investigate the cellular and molecular a...
