Happy to share our recent pub on large EVs using the fly eye tumor model and human cancer cell lines! CIN-induced STING signaling in tumors promotes the generation of large EVs, which in turn enhance STING signaling in circulating immune cells and drive systemic immune response🫧

The version of record of our paper is out! 🎉 We show that sulfation is essential for organizing the apical ECM (aECM) during tubulogenesis in Drosophila, and identify ZP domain proteins as key components of the non-chitinous aECM of the salivary gland. 🧬 elifesciences.org/articles/1…
Our new paper, “Organization of the apical extracellular matrix during tubular organ formation”, has been published in @eLife! elifesciences.org/reviewed-p…

Did you know that Gustav Klimt’s The Kiss is full of EVs? I’m seeing exomeres, sEV, MVBs.. #ISEV2025

Happy to share our new story published in @Cell_Metabolism regarding oral fructose tolerance test and blood glycerate measurements as a potential predictor of individual vulnerability to fructose-induced fatty liver disease. Awesome collaboration with @YangLabUCLA. Congrats all!

Have you all seen this photo from Husky Stadium yesterday... ? 😍
Greatest setting in college football. Today’s rains helped make one of the better Husky Stadium photos I have ever seen. Taken by Brenda Stuvek from the UW Medical Center.

Let's take a step back and appreciate this moment. When the whole world seems to experiencing a regression toward authoritarianism, South Koreans forcefully, yet peacefully, ended the attempted destruction of democracy. What an achievement.

Joanne Yew taught us that some Hawaiian 🪰species get a special 🍄‍🟫 tea! They need this diet to manufacture the chemicals for mating #DROS25
