Differential control of mycobacterial growth ex vivo by COVID-19 patients is associated with CD8+ CD28+ T cells Diseases caused by SARS-CoV-2 and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) represent two public health emergencies. In severe presentations of disease, both …

Finally out! We discovered a specific CD8+ CD28+ T cell population in a subset of COVID-19 patients associated with mycobacterial control - check it out if you want to know more :)

Lactate: A key regulator of the immune response Lactate shows immunomodulatory properties. Mauro etΒ al. review how lactate serves a fuel for the TCA cycle and an immunomodulatory molecule with context-dependent effects, and how its immunomodulatory...

Once considered a waste product, we now know that lactate shapes the immune response at many different levels. If you want to learn more check out our latest review in @cp-immunity.bsky.social

Delighted (and grateful!) to have been awarded a VALIDATE pump-priming grant to study human lung responses to mycobacteria and help TB vaccine design. Thanks @unibirmingham.bsky.social for all your support and looking forward to working with Dr Cris Vilaplana!

Chart showing rapidly rising temperatures with 2024 the worst

2024 daily temperatures compared to past years. A frightening graphic from the BBC. #ClimateEmergency

IL-7 promotes integrated glucose and amino acid sensing during homeostatic CD4+ TΒ cell proliferation Interleukin (IL)-7 promotes TΒ cell expansion during lymphopenia. We studied the metabolic basis in CD4+ TΒ cells, observing increased glucose usage for…

Online now, our latest manuscript reporting findings on the metabolic basis of cytokine-driven CD4+ T cell expansion, assessed in vitro and during T cell proliferation following autologous stem cell transplantation.
