  3. @roylelab Nice work! This reminds me of a paper published while I was in my PhD lab addressing ER membrane contribution to the Phagocytic cup.

    It still stands as a fantastic example of structured hypothesis testing.

  7. 🚀We are thrilled to announce the funding of the new research group “Phagosome Biology and Engineering”! Many thanks to the state of Thuringia for making this project possible.🙌

    The group focuses on the interactions between fungi and hosts during the #phagocytosis to gain better understanding of how a 🍄 manipulates its host's defense mechanisms.

    Molecular regulation of #immune cell #plasticity and function in the #brain

    "Our brain is the ultimate time machine" 🙂

    How to target #synapses (for intervention) while preserving them (to avoid "turning back the clock"

    Possibility that #microglia could be harnessed

    partnered with IMPC (impc.org) to find microglia regulators in retina
    one cool hit: SIRPα
    it's NOT involved in #phagocytosis... surprise

  10. Giant neuron derived vesicles called #exophers are processed by #phagocytosis in neighboring skin cells, and the phagocytic interaction promotes exopher production. #Neuroscience elifesciences.org/articles/822

    "Our data provide evidence that, in the mononuclear phagocyte system, the ability to proliferate is not merely restricted to myeloid progenitor cells and mature resident tissue macrophages (RTMs) but is also a tightly regulated capability of monocytes developing into RTMs in vivo"

  12. Uptake-independent killing of macrophages by extracellular #Mycobacterium #tuberculosis aggregates

    Chiara Toniolo et al show that Mtb aggregates evade #phagocytosis by inducing #macrophage #pyroptosis via a mechanism involving its type VII secretion system ESX-1 and surface lipid PDIM

  13. @kschink @CurrentBiology It's been years since I worked in #Phagocytosis but it still love seeing movies like this.

    Also, brilliant that they refer to DDB_G0269934 as argy-bargy 😂

  14. "Here, we show that neuronal signal-regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) is a permissive cue for microglial #phagocytosis in the developing murine retina. Removal of neuronal, but not microglial, SIRPα reduced microglial phagocytosis, increased synpase numbers, and impaired circuit function. Conversely, prolonging neuronal SIRPα expression extended developmental microglial phagocytosis. These outcomes depended on the interaction of presynaptic SIRPα with postsynaptic CD47."
