Excited to share our last study. Huge congrats to Sarah Monard, Arnaud Métais, @gclugo.bsky.social, @chrisverollet.bsky.social and all colleagues! We have found a mysterious cell type inside TB lung lesions that seems neuron-like but isn't quite a nerve cell. Let's dive in👇 shorturl.at/x4Sb5

This new study shows that inhibition of S1pr3 ameliorates bleomycin-induced #PulmonaryFibrosis (PF) by reducing #macrophage M2 polarization via the PI3K/Akt-Stat3 signaling pathway, indicating that S1pr3 may be a potential target for PF treatment. #OpenAccess: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
