Fibroblastic reticular cells direct theΒ initiation of T cell responses via CD44 - Nature
CD44 expressed by fibroblastic reticular cells in secondary lymphoid organs regulates trafficking of dendritic cells, and thus has an essential role in the priming of T cells and the adaptive immune r...
This is a cool paper
"The targeting of CD44 by CMV reveals CD44 as a molecule that is essential to the functioning of the FRC network and uncovers a previously unrecognized stroma-based mechanism that is critical for the generation of effective T cell responses." #Immunology

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli invade luminal prostate cells via FimHβPPAP receptor binding - Nature Microbiology
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli infection of a murine prostate organoid model reveals a bacterial FimHβhost prostatic acid phosphatase adhesin-receptor interaction enabling invasion and replication wit...
Our first paper is out today in @natmicrobiol.nature.com!
We introduce a prostate organoid model and show that UPEC invades prostate cells via FimH binding to the prostate-specific protein PAPP. A step toward targeted therapies against bacterial prostatitis. π

Shigella was the leading cause of diarrheal disease during World War One; and more than 100 years later, it continues to cause approximately 200 million cases and 216,000 deaths per year around the globe. Shigella is a leading cause of moderate to severe diarrhea in children less than five years of age in low- and middle-income nations, and significant disease occurs throughout Europe and North America due to sexual transmission, food borne and water borne outbreaks, and high incidence in homeless populations. The lack of a licensed vaccine, coupled with alarming increases in antimicrobial resistance, has led the World Health Organization to declare Shigella a priority pathogen for which research into new therapeutics are urgently needed.
