Autophagy maintains high endothelial venule identity and function during inflammation
High endothelial venules (HEVs) facilitate lymphocyte entry into lymph nodes by displaying peripheral node addressin (PNAd), yet how PNAd is regulated remains poorly understood. Jacobs et al. reveal t...

💡Lymphatic endothelial cells aren’t just passive conduits. They control T cell egress via autophagy & S1P, and can make or break immunotherapy. Read the article by Diede Houbaert, @kathrynjacobss.bsky.social, and @agostinislab.bsky.social 🔗: sciexplor.com/exo/articles... #tumorimmunology #autophagy

🚨 Where does lipid peroxidation kick off in ferroptosis? 🔥Excited to reveal ER-mitochondria contacts as hotspots of the lipid peroxidation cascade!

We've been studying mechanisms of resilience that protect lysosomes from damage and wrote a review on the topic. We consider lysosomal stress and damage on a spectrum. Please help me share as this is my first post 😀 and I don't have many followers! 🙏 Open Access: www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....
