For 25 years, the Toll-like Receptor pathway was considered a series of distinct protein complexes that drive inflammation. Today, we report that the entire pathway, from receptor to transcription factor, is executed from within one complex—the myddosome.

Great to see this out.
Structure of an inflammatory caspase and IL-1 family cytokine. #caspase4 #IL18
@pascal_devant @Nature
Ever wondered how inflammatory caspases recognize IL-1 cytokines for cleavage?

“Everyone knew it when Marcel entered a room – she was a small woman with a huge presence”: Dr. Marcel Frailich Kaplun, who was murdered by Hamas terrorists on her kibbutz, was a passionate educator and a beloved figure at the Weizmann Institute of Science. Her colleagues bid her farewell >> bit.ly/Marcel-wis

With sorrow, we (@Stanford_MCP @SSBiophysics) share news that our friend & colleague, Bill Weis, passed away Oct 13,2023. Among many other reasons, he is missed for his discoveries, mentoring, and for the gift of his incisive intellect, wry wit, & kindness. RIP.

Dr. Esther Lederberg was a pioneer in bacterial genetics. For much of her career, she did not receive the professional recognition bestowed upon men whose work was intermixed with her own. Recognizing her contributions brings her legacy out of the shadows. asm.social/1ux

An inspiring celebration today of an endowed chair for @PaulSaxMD. He’s truly a giant in the field and I’m lucky to have called him a teacher, mentor and friend. Congratulations Paul!
NLRP11, a top hit in forward genetic screen for human genes required for Shigella-induced cell death. Led us to investigate NLRP11 function in gram-negative infection. @SciImmunology @mgh_id @MGH_RI @MGHMedicine
science.org/doi/10.1126/scii…
NLRP11 is a pattern recognition receptor for LPS. It is required for efficient activation of the caspase-4 inflammasome by LPS. NLRP11 binds LPS and forms a HWM complex with caspase-4. @SciImmunology @mgh_id @MGH_RI @MGHMedicine
science.org/doi/10.1126/scii…
NLRP11 is primate-specific; could contribute to 10^4 fold human-mouse differences in severe infections like sepsis. @SciImmunol @mgh_id @MGH_RI @MGHMedicine

Some further thoughts about Dr. Marty Samuels, of @BWHNeurology, who was quite simply the best clinical teacher I’ve ever encountered.
Here's why he was so great, with a few choice videos to prove it.

A massive boost to the Microbial Pathogenesis community in Tennessee. Congratulations @TorresVJ_Lab!
We proudly welcome Dr. Victor J. Torres as chair of the newly formed St. Jude Department of Host-Microbe Interactions, which will focus on treating and preventing disease-causing infections in children. bit.ly/43Rrr3m @TorresVJ_Lab
