Lactate was known as a metabolic waste product from glycolysis, but more and more evidence shows it acts as a signaling molecule. Happy to have contributed with former great student @seb-math-bio.bsky.social‬ to the data analysis of a study in /@natmetabolism.nature.com showing how 1/

🚨 New Publication Alert 🚨 How does social network structure shape the trade-off between infections and interactions? A new study by Bunlang Thatchai, Christopher E. Overton & @tah-sci.com explores this using a mathematical model of epidemic dynamics. 🧵

Our findings suggest that fibroblasts and macrophages play significant roles in the HNPGN tumor microenvironment. This adds to our understanding of the composition and activity of these tumors. (7/8)

In situ confocal microscopy showed that MCT1 & MCT4 were expressed in both HNPGN tumor cells and stromal macrophages. This points to potential metabolic interactions in the #TumorMicroenvironment. (6/8)

Fibroblasts derived from HNPGN expressed PDPN, as seen in healthy tissue fibroblasts, and markers like FAP, MCT1, CD220, & CD222 (via #FlowCytometry). These markers reflect their functional properties. (5/8)

RT-qPCR analysis confirmed the expression of macrophage- and fibroblast-associated molecules in HNPGN samples. These findings highlight the active role of stromal cells in these tumors. (4/8)

Using #Immunohistochemistry, we identified: > CD68+ & CD163+ macrophages > CD90+ & PDPN+ fibroblasts These stromal cells were present in HNPGN tissues and may contribute to tumour behaviour. (3/8)

📢Excited to share our new study on head and neck paragangliomas (HNPGN)! We focused on the role of #Fibroblasts and #Macrophages in the tumor microenvironment. Here's a breakdown of what we found🧵(1/8)
