Not all chemokine signaling is about cell migration!

In mouse erythroblasts, CXCL12-bound CXCR4 enters the nucleus to control gene transcription, trigger calcium bursts, and drive red blood cell formation—especially enucleation.

New paper alert! Excited to share our latest work on the importance of inflammatory #chemokine receptors (iCCR, aka the best chemokine receptors) in mounting an optimal T cell response to #influenza infection.

Please share, happy to discuss!

So excited to share our first neuro focused paper from the lab, we show that CXCL4 (PF4) is transported into the brain by proteoglycans within the endothelial glycocalyx and that GAG binding also mediates the pro neurogenesis effects of CXCL4. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Inflammatory chemokine receptors CCR1, CCR2, CCR3 and CCR5 are essential for an optimal T cell response to influenza. Inflammatory chemokine receptors CCR1/2/3/5 (iCCRs) play an important role in the recruitment of immune cells involved in innate immune functions and orchestrating the adaptive immune response. Here w...

Some nice new reserach from @mariekedoesscience.bsky.social and @crgglasgow.bsky.social studying the inflammatory CCR locus and immune responses to influenza. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Share all your papers!!! Give descriptions so people will engage. Scientists should not rely on pubmed and talks alone to share their information.
