‼️Fresh off the press‼️
In a nutshell: the IFITM2/3–MYCT1 complex is a new endothelial traffic controller deciding how much energy gets routed for storage in fat 🚦

‼️ELS2027 is here‼️
Registration for European Lymphatic Symposium 2027 is now open! 🎉
Join us in beautiful Budapest for cutting-edge science, and networking with the lymphatic research community.
Register today: semmelweispremium.hu/els2027
🤩Glad to see our work on the cover of @JExpMed 🥳
.@JExpMed July issue is here! hubs.la/Q04ngxdh0 Roci et al. @petrovalab demonstrate that lymphatic endothelial cells require the water channel AQP1 for stress-adaptive lymphangiogenesis. This confocal image captures that dependency directly (1/2): hubs.la/Q04ngKTn0

Thank you very much Nicola Diny and @JCellBiol for highlighting our work on intestinal eosinophils !🙏
Spotlight: Nicola Diny @UniklinikBonn previews a study from @petrovalab et al. (hubs.la/Q04kvJwJ0) which reveals that #eosinophils drive a developmental program for postnatal intestinal remodeling and maturation. hubs.la/Q04ks9f70

Happy to share scRNA-seq dataset of murine mesenteric tissue in easy-to-use format at the Single Cell Portal

Our new paper is live❣️🎊🎉🍾
Irena Roci et al. @PetrovaLab show that the water channel AQP1 sustains lymphatic endothelial cell migration under osmotic stress, establishing tissue #osmolarity as a key biophysical determinant of postnatal #lymphangiogenesis. hubs.la/Q04jyN2W0

Our new paper is out ! Congrats to @JBernierLatmani and the entire team!🎉🎉
#Eosinophils–usually linked to infection and disease–are actually helping to build the gut. New research from @PetrovaLab & @JBernierLatmani shows they reprogram fibroblasts into villus smooth muscle cells, helping shape and mature the villi postnatally. hubs.la/Q04ggV0t0
Very happy to see our work on the cover of @JExpMed 🤩
The cover of our May issue (hubs.la/Q04flyNK0) is a confocal microscopy image of an immunostained mouse fat sample depicting Laminin α4–positive white #adipocytes (gray) & Pecam1-positive blood capillaries (gold). By Wetternwald, Köck, Petrova et al. hubs.la/Q04flBnH0
Highly recommended !

#ELS2027
Congrats, well done Claudia and Stefanie!
Thanks to @EVB_Org for support!
From breakthroughs in human genetics to strategies for drug delivery via and to the lymphatic system - last day at GRC Lymphatics 2026 was a blast!
Congrats to everyone for making this conference a success! 🙌
See you in 2028 as we pass the torch to @KarinaYaniv & Mark Kahn!
Wednesday - Day 4 of the GRC Lymphatics 2026!
More big topics on the table today:
- Lymphatics & cancer
- Immunological surveillance of tissues via lymph
- Lymphatic endothelium as active player in immunity
Lots of hard work ...and also a bit of play. 😄
🤩Two more exciting days at GRC Lymphatics 2026!
We’re exploring big questions:
-Developmental origins of lymphatics
-Lymphatic mechanotransduction
-Organ‑specific lymphatics and new therapies
Looks like an incubator for many new collaborations!
🚀GRC Lymphatics 2026 kicked off! 🚀
Great mix of old and new friends, many exciting new results - amazing to see the field growing.
Chair & co-chair in the pic. Very sorry Brant Weinstein and Karina Yaniv @KarinaYaniv aren’t here - we miss you!
‼️Only 1 day to go‼️
