Check out our new work!!!
Excited to share this work in which we show how infection, specifically UTI, can impact breast tissue through host-induced factors such as TIMP1, by this amazing team! @SamanthaCyrill @mKate588 @DeeptimanChatt2 @CicconeMichael @caoresco nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

A paper in @NatureGenet reports on a single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of over 800,000 human adult breast cells, which identifies 41 cell subtypes and highlights age- and parity-dependent effects. go.nature.com/49r4ir1

Here is a research briefing @NatureGenet explaining our the story behind the Atlas.

Its finally here! I am excited to announce our paper on the Human Breast Cell Atlas is live now at @NatureGenet! A massive thank you to everyone involved particularly my amazing co-author @Dr_SaraPensa, project leads @WTKLAB and @MarioniLab and the @BreastCancerNow tissue bank!
I am pleased to share the final version of our Human Breast Cell Atlas with @MarioniLab now out @NatureGenet. There are important new additions, which I will leave to @Dr_SaraPensa and @AustinDReed to mention👇 . Couple of points i want to highlight 👇:

One of our key findings from the HBCA was that women carrying BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations have a significantly increased presence of immune cells in the breast.

Our HBCA captures the cellular heterogeneity of the resting breast and characterises the many changes imparted by age, parity and germline BRCA1/2 mutations at a cellular level. Have a look at our previous thread on the bioRxiv for more details!
Super excited to be sharing the preprint for my first paper alongside co-author @Dr_SaraPensa with help from many others across @WTKLAB and @MarioniLab! A massive thank you to everyone who made it all possible!
I am very pleased to share our second and largest contribution to “The Human Breast Cell Atlas” (HBCA) project. Buckle up a longish thread ahead!

Not sure yet on release date, but we have patients from a wide range of differing age, parity and menopause status included!
