Our recent paper evaluating #immunometabolism in #COVID19 is officially out @CellReports. Thanks to everyone at @JohnsHopkins and @HopkinsMedicine who helped make this paper a reality! bit.ly/2P37Uvy

Metabolic profiling also revealed MDSCs that expressed elevated CPT1a and VDAC1 in COVID19 and correlated with disease severity. scRNAseq provided clues to their possible function including release of alarmins (S100a8/9) and chemokines (CXCL2/3).

We would like to thank @AnnualReviews for another opportunity to review the exciting field of #adenosine inhibition and ways to improve cancer #immunotherapy. @E_A_Thompson

Proud that our #COVID study is now on @medrxivpreprint. Congrats to @J_Powell_Lab, @Yegnalab, Andrea Cox, Hongkai Ji, and all our collaborators for putting together this impactful study! medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Excited to share our new #immunometabolism work to define novel immune cells in #COVID19 giving insight into pathogenesis to target metabolism as a treatment! Reach out to hear how we are also using this approach in #immunotherapy @E_A_Thompson

A big thank you to Current Opinion in Pharmacology for this opportunity! Excited to share our new review on A2AR as a target for cancer immunotherapy. @RachelSHelms1 & Jonathan Powell identify ways to bring A2AR targeting into the clinic.

Thanks to the editors @NatureRevCancer, excited to have our new review by Leone and Powell posted online. Metabolism of Immune Cells in Cancer. @bobdleone @J_Powell_Lab #immunometabolism nature.com/articles/s41568-0…
ALT Potential metabolic targets for enhancing immune response in cancer.
Stay tuned! We are excited to be participating in this wonderful seminar series!
@J_Powell_Lab is our next speaker at the Online Immunometabolism Seminars.
Targeting Immunometabolism in Times of COVID-19.
Or maybe as therapy for COVID-19?
We are really looking forward to this one!
Excited to share our new work in @jclinicalinvest. By targeting glutamine metabolism, we can enhance anti-tumor immunity by modulating MDSCs.

if you need some non-COVID-19 reading, check out our latest in @FrontImmunol on using metabolic inhibitor therapy in combination with CTLA4Ig in skin and heart transplant to not only prevent rejection, but induce long-term tolerance!

this builds on previous work from our lab in collaboration with @VCAlabHopkins in @CellReports in 2015, in which we demonstrated combo DON, 2DG, and metformin as metabolic inhibitor therapy was a powerful way to inhibit skin and heart transplant rejection

if you're at the #TRC32020 come by this evening to see Powell lab postdoc Liz Thompson present her work combining flow phenotyping with metabolic markers to predict responses to #Immunotherapy in human peripheral blood samples! poster 7 at 7 (7&7's optional) #immunometabolism

another day, another Powell lab postdoc presenting at #KSTcellmemory! come by the poster session tonight to see Hong Sun (@moonie_sun) present a poster on the role of mTOR regulation of vimentin in the T cell response! memories will be made! #KScellmemory
in Banff for #KSTcellmemory? Get out of the winter chill and stop by the poster session this evening to see our postdoc Chirag Patel present on the role of TSC2 regulation in T cell memory formation!

Great start to the T cell memory @KeystoneSymp with a great talk from Rafi Ahmed. Looking forward to tonight's poster session. Swing by poster 1058 to chat about our new project on the impact of metabolic disorders on T cell dysfunction and ACT. #obesetcells #DBRpostdoc
Congratulation to Dr. @ian_bettencourt! We greatly appreciate his presence in the lab and wish him the best of luck on his future endeavors. "Follow the data." #thedataisthedata
