Neutrophils drive vascular occlusion, tumour necrosis and metastasis - Nature
Neutrophils actively induce tumour necrosis, driving vascular occlusion, pleomorphic necrosis and metastasis.
Iβm happy to share our latest work on tumour necrosis! During my time in the @megeblad.bsky.social lab, we found that tumour necrosis is not a passive phenomenon secondary to tumour growth, but an active phenomenon driven by neutrophils and NETs! Thread below: (1/13)

Fig. 2 Whole-body estimates of sea otter metabolism scaled to body mass.
Estimated scaled whole-body metabolic rates include predicted [BMR; predicted on the basis of scaled rate for eutherian mammals], sea otter resting metabolic rate, and whole-body skeletal muscle leak capacity.
Several mammal species live in cold-water environments thanks to adaptations like blubber and large size. A notable exception is the sea otterβso how does it stay warm?
A 2021 Science study found an answer: skeletal muscle thermogenesis.

"Psychological safety" was the #1 predictor of an effective team in a study by Google. 'In other words, for a diverse team to work to its fullest capacity, everyone on the team must feel that it is safe to voice his or her opinions without being ridiculed.' π@virusesimmunity.bsky.social
