Great pleasure to finally meet and discuss in person with the one and only PC (what's his blue sky?) today at @ciml.bsky.social . I hope you enjoy your time! in the photo he looks like singing, but not, is just rocking it PC is another great member of our @immunometeurope.bsky.social !

Congratulations Nicolas ! I just seen this and I will read in detail, but... I wonder, what is the advantage for viruses to target the centromere proteins? they inhibit silencing machinery there? hmm 🤔.. is that known?

It’s the start of a new week. But we still want more labcoats and less white robes. We need to keep standing up for science! @standupforscience.bsky.social @marionlegrand.bsky.social @rafajarguello.bsky.social @cnrs.fr @inserm.fr @univ-amu.fr @crcm.bsky.social @ciml.bsky.social #Medsky
Selfie of 3 persons at a « Stand up for Science » March in the middle of a crowd of pacific demonstrator. One of the 3 persons is holding a sign that says « more labcoats and less white robes » written in French and showing an actual labcoat next to KKK white robes.

I have been so sick! lost the sense of smell and taste. I don't appreciate tastes but only textures in my mouth. My father lost his sense of smell in an accident (11yo). However, He enjoys food more than average people. How come? did he forgot what tastes good and created a new scale in his brain?

I propose you do the same with your next pre-pring and let´s make scientific publications and sharing results also part of the creative process. I can also share how I did this.. but I also let you create your own way ;)

6/ "We hypothesized that patients with high expression levels of XBP1 target genes might resist Bortezomib more effectively. Our research in clinical trials confirmed this, predicting patient survival with bortezomib—but not with other drugs, highlighting the specificity of our findings. "

5/6 "Stress can lead to cell death or survival. Chemotherapies like bortezomib induce ER stress" We discovered a subpopulation of bortezomib-resistant cells that survive, reliant on IRE-1, raising questions about the role of IRE1 and XBP1 in patient survival under bortezomib treatment."

4/6 "Using SNUPR, we observed diverse cellular responses to the same stress: some cells block protein translation, others pause and recover, while some don’t stop at all. Not all induce XBP1 translocation—some massively do. Discover much more about their intricate interactions in our paper! 📑"

"Western blot and qPCR are bulk and can be tedious, so we developed SNUPR" Think of it like flow cytometry, but for nuclei. SNUPR allows to more efficiently track transcription factor translocation, and translation without cytoplasmic interference, offering clearer, more specific results."

2/6 ER stress starts with the accumulation of misfolded proteins in the ER. This results in the activation of sensors that mediate molecular responses, resulting in cell adaptation or cell death. The interplay between sensors and resulting cellular responses are challenging to study, SO..
