#WeekendRead! #InterferonPower! Dunphy @sancholab.bsky.social &co show @cp-immunity.bsky.social that in #macrophages, STING leads to type I #IFNs & ISG15-dependent ISGlatyion of mitochondrial proteins, increasing efferocytosis & driving epigenetic remodeling thus supporting inflammation resolution!
#InterferonFriendsOrFoes? Another cool one @ellenfoxman.bsky.social &friends out @plosbiology.org about how excessive #IFNs delay repair by activating LATS & degrading YAP/TAZ in the Hippo 🦛 pathway! journals.plos.org/plosbiology/... 👇👇👇
#WeekendRead! #SmartTumor! #SharingIsCaring! #InterferonFriendOrFoe?! Lot in this @cp-cellmetabolism.bsky.social paper from Okwan-Duodu &co showing that tumor cells steal #mitochondria from immune cells to impair their activity & to produce immune suppressive type I #IFNs via cGAS-STING!
Wow, I didnt know the timeline would be this tight, #immunology post docs interested in 2yr impact+ award if graduated with PhD in last 2 yrs & currently outside 🇨🇦, we need to nominate by Jan 15th! So if interested in #IFNs, #IBD, #immunoregulation, get in touch ASAP as this will be competitive! 🤞🙏🏻😊
In #Science #Immunology, researchers at @stanfordmedicine.bsky.social studied #IFNs in human #fetal #thymus development. They found type I & II IFNs play distinct but critical roles in cortical & medullary thymic #EpithelialCell differentiation!
Congrats to Julian and others from @ramlabuw.bsky.social on this cool work that finds that the loss of the RNA-binding protein CELF2 leads to accumulation of endogenous RIG-I ligands! #RNA #innateimmunity #IFNs
Officially official 🥳🎉🥂
5yr #CIHR grant celebrations today with #SanterLab & Murooka lab who also got their grant (as co-I some #IFNL too 😉)
#IBD #IFNs #immunology
So thankful to our co-Is, collabs & all in our lab + #sisterlab who worked hard to help get this funded🙏🏻

3/4 #IFNs - intentional fake news
How: Pick one of the many ridiculous events we are hearing about and ridicule what is happening with an intentional face news (marked as fake news)
Quick guide / overview for
#cts = change the story, shape the world, #MiHS - make it happen stories, #IFNs - intentional fake news, alternative reality
Details in thread 🧵
#IFNs #pbfc 🧵
‘You know,’ Alice interrupted his thoughts, ‘maybe we should fight back after all.’
‘What do you mean?’
‘The smear campaign people invent stories to harm us.’
‘Yes?’

Is it possible to defuse fake news by countering them with intentional fake news? For more see: #IFNs

Intentional fake news
You could argue that all fake news are intentional, but if I mark my news piece as fake news, then it can become a parody of fake news.
8/18 - alternative reality
A person/group can be ridiculed with stories or #IFNs which depict an alternative reality, most effectively with an element of the absurd.
Case: A president announces expansion phantasies. In the alternative reality, the same president dissolves their nation.
7/18 - #IFNs - intentional fake news
Intentional fake news are fake news which are marked as fake news and are intended to ridicule both the practice of producing fake news and the person or group the IFN is about.

I hope 2025 brings the same engagement here as #ScienceTwitter used to be🤞🤞
#TwitterWrapped nicely summarized my Twitter account 👇👇
Not surprising to see #science #research #IFNs #SanterLab as a focus + of course #scicomm 🥳😀👩🔬
Had fun today giving a seminar describing our past 4yrs of research from the #SanterLab from #COVID19 to #immunoregulation to #IBD, with a common theme of #IFNs 😀🥳
There were ups & downs, but many great memories so far.
Thanks to my awesome team & colleagues, funders + many collabs 🙏🏻
#WeekendRead! #LiveForever! Sehrawat &co show @ Nature Communications that aged dendritic cells #DCs produce less type I #IFNs in response to IAV & do not efficiently activate CD8 T cells! Rab8a over expression boosts Ag cross presentation restoring DC functions! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Poster announcing seminar by Dr. Deanna Santer December 5, 2024 at 1pm at the University of Manitoba Bannatyne campus.
Finally giving a seminar to my own #immunology dept next week Dec 5 🥳
Now while it is in-person only in Winnipeg🇨🇦 so some here cannot join, I am happy to chat about #IFNs & esp #IFNLs anytime! #interferosky 😊
@um-radyfhs.bsky.social
#InterferonPower! Elewaut, @obenaufa.bsky.social &co show @ Nature that inflammatory monocytes can acquire MHC-class I from tumor cells & locally activate CD8 T cells, given that the capacity of the tumor to shut down type I #IFNs & upreg PGE2 is reverted! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
