@jcamthrash Very interesting commentary and didcussion of fundamentals of #immunology... reduction of horizontal gene transfer rate in eukaryotes is presented, which also brings up compartimentalization and specialization... Is there more liiterature on this aspect of #immunobiology ?
Great pleasure to be part of the European Society for Medical Oncology Immunooncology meeting in London #esmoimmuno25 as a scientific committee member, chair and invited speaker. The first day already kicks off with brilliant talks on tertiary lymphoid structures and triads as niches for anti-tumoral activiation in the tissue. A packed auditorium and exciting discussions with Samra Turajlić taking the stage right now. #tls #immunobiology #oncology #science #health https://www.esmo.org/

🧬✨ Did you know a safer way to prevent deadly graft-versus-host disease (#GvHD) during bone marrow transplants may lie in reshaping the immune system? Megan Molina & Emmanuel Katsanis’s work shows that using bendamustine (BEN) with radiation helps prepare the body for bone marrow transplant while reducing harmful immune reactions.

Defence mechanism inception!

Listeria prophages protect their host bacteria with anti-phage systems, leaving them susceptible to their own defence systems - read how this may actually be an evolutionary advantage!
