Endogenous thymic regeneration: restoring T cell production following injury - Nature Reviews Immunology This Review discusses recent advances in our understanding of the biology of endogenous tissue regeneration in the thymus, highlighting the clinical implications of poor thymic recovery.

Gives me great pleasure to share with the world the labs latest paper, reviewing the nascent but growing area of endogenous thymic regeneration. Great to work with the marvelous trainees David and Dante on this. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

ENPP1/CD203a-targeting heavy-chain antibody reveals cell-specific expression on human immune cells - Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences ENPP1/CD203a is a membrane-bound ectonucleotidase capable of hydrolyzing ATP, cGAMP and other substrates. Its enzymatic activity plays an important role in the balance of extracellular adenine nucleot...

New year, new Bluesky account, new paper🥳

ENPP1 degrades extracellular ATP and the cGAS/STING messenger cGAMP, and is therefore important for immune regulation. We generated nanobodies against ENPP1 and found a cell type-specific expression pattern in human blood👩🏼‍🔬
