Sheets are labeled w/ fluorescent surrogate antigen (magenta); B cells are marked by CD19 (orange). See Berzosa et al. doi.org/10.1084/jem.... 111

Adam Nathan McShane @basicleukocyte.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Thank you to everyone involved, especially my co-first author Melibea Berzosa Suñer, Dessi Malinova, and our collaborators in the Persephone Borrow Lab, Nuffield Department of Medicine, University of Oxford, and Olav Andersen, Department of Biomedicine, Aarhus University 000
Adam Nathan McShane @basicleukocyte.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Loss of SorLA led to reduced peptide-MHC II presentation, and impaired humoral immune responses in vivo, highlighting how intracellular trafficking pathways can modulate immunity 100
Adam Nathan McShane @basicleukocyte.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Here, we characterise the role of intracellular trafficking receptor, SorLA, as a novel regulator of BCR-antigen trafficking. We find that SorLA interacts with the BCR, regulating BCR endocytosis and antigen-induced BCR degradation 100
Adam Nathan McShane @basicleukocyte.bsky.social · 05/08/2026🎉 Very excited to share that my first first-author paper is now out in the Journal of Experimental Medicine!
