Enhancing immunity during ageing by targeting interactions within the tissue environment tinyurl.com/2m84cfjy This new Review discusses how inflammation and senescence drive each other during aging, leading to loss of immune function, and discusses approaches to address this
Congrats to @OliviaBracken1 on winning the Best Moderated Poster for postdocs at the @DoM_UCL Research Retreat! 🎉🥳 Exciting data showing how IL-15 mediates NK receptor-mediated cytotoxicity in CD8 senescent T cells
Just published! My first last author paper! Showing that vitamin D inhibits inflammatory cytokine production from senescent dermal fibroblasts via inhibition of p38-MAPKinase pathway doi.org/10.1111/acel.1… @blizard_inst @AkbarLab
Pass by our posters for more senescence talk with @OliviaBracken1 and Souraya! #BSI23 - Liv: IL-15 drives NKR-mediated cytotoxicity in senescent CD8+ T cells- P554 - Souraya: Vitamin D3 inhibits p38 MAPK and the SASP in senescent fibroblasts to boost immunity during ageing- P204
Rino, @polinadeletic and Terence are presenting their work in tonight’s poster session. Come and have a chat! -Rino: Simultaneous TCR and NKR engagement on T cells- P-555 -Polina: Senescent fibroblasts & Tregs- P-207 -Terence: IL-15 and cytotoxicity in senescent CD8 cells- P-203
Akbar Lab, past and present! Mini reunion at #BSI23
