So excited to see the wonderfully enthusiastic Jeanette Boudreau presenting her laboratory’s work on mitoDAMPs and immunoregulation at NK2022. Dalhousie is lucky to have her! @SNI_NKMeeting @JeanetteEB

Tune in to this week's @scisignal: Zeguang Wu & Soo Park from our lab found that variable SHP-1 levels determine NK cell responsiveness in both human and mouse NK cells!

We were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Dr. Christine Biron. She was a gifted scientist, wonderful mentor, and true pioneer in the NK cell field in so many ways.

Another T-easer, this time from the NK cell side of things: Congrats to Zeguang Wu, @rosasott, Jean-Benoît Le Luduec, @panjwani_phd, Peter Conaty, and @KatjaSrpan, along with @colleenmlau in @SunLab_Official et al., on our paper coming up in @J_immunol!

Dr. Hsu and @rosasott spoke with the news team @sloan_kettering about the "double sword"-ed hybrid cytotoxic lymphocyte described in our recent @SciImmunology paper, and how following up on the basic biology behind surprising observations still drives potential new therapies.
Breaking #immunology news! In a new study, #MSK researchers relay the discovery of a new, hybrid cell type that could be a powerful tool for #immunotherapy. Learn more about this development and what it could mean for the fight against #cancer. https://t.co/xwoe0lQ4nL

A new @sloan_kettering, @WeillCornell study presents an intersection of adaptive and innate #immunity: Killer T cells that acquire features of natural killer cells and enhanced cell killing capacity, which emerge in human #cytomegalovirus infection: https://t.co/f1D73r6D0L

When is a T cell secretly an NK cell? @rosasott, @panjwani_phd, and Jean-Benoît Le Luduec in the Hsu Lab found out in this week's issue of @SciImmunology, with help from @colleenmlau in @SunLab_Official and @DaniyanMd!
science.org
NKG2C+CD8+ T cells, found in 40% of HCMV-seropositive individuals, have lost BCL11B expression and adopt an innate-like identity.

Degranulation enhances presynaptic membrane packing, which protects NK cells from perforin-mediated autolysis
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Natural killer (NK) cells kill a target cell by secreting perforin into the lytic immunological synapse, a specialized interface formed between the NK cell and its target. Perforin creates pores in...
