How can we reawaken the body’s own anti-viral defenses to fight brain cancer? Delighted to share our new study where we now answer this question, led by the brilliant @alvarezprado.bsky.social who is now an independent PI at LIH Luxembourg 👏👏 #BrainTIME 🧠🦠🧪 🧵 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

🧠 Neuro-immunology is reshaping how we understand the brain - across many diseases, including #cancer In this research highlight 🧪🔬 we discuss a new study in #Nature by Remsik, Boire et al showing how IFNγ-activated immune cells in the CNS, incl DCs, help constrain leptomeningeal #metastasis

Excited to share our research highlight on leptomeningeal metastasis and how IFNγ-activated dendritic cells shape CNS immune control—featuring the latest from @adrienneboire.bsky.social and @meningojan.bsky.social— A privilege to write this with @johannajoyce.bsky.social at @joycelab.bsky.social 🙏🧠🔬

Excited to see our image on the cover of #Immunity today 🤩 Congrats to the amazing @lbejarano.bsky.social & all authors for our #brain #tumor #vasculature study www.cell.com/immunity/ful... Huge 🙏 🙏 to the v talented @joanagcc.bsky.social for creating this super cover 🧠🧪 @cp-immunity.bsky.social

On the cover: The blood-brain barrier is a defining feature of brain tumors, shaping their biology and therapeutic response. In this issue, Bejarano et al. use single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial analysis to construct a vascular atlas of primary and metastatic brain tumors, revealing distinct alterations in endothelial and mural cells. Glioblastomas undergo substantial vascular remodeling compared to low-grade gliomas, while brain metastases exhibit even greater permeability and increased immune cell interactions. This unveiling of vascular heterogeneity is depicted as a red pencil coloring in the intricate details of tumor-associated blood vessels within a map of the human brain wherein a tumor is surrounded by diverse immune cells.
