Our latest work, uncovering the origins of microglia in human aging! Link to article below 👇
Gaining therapeutic access to the human brain is one of the biggest unsolved problems in biomedical science. Today @nature, we uncover a massive influx of immune cells into the human brain during aging, revealing that the brain is more accessible than previously thought. 1/ nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

✨ Thrilled to share our new publication in Nature. We define an “inflammatory memory” HSC state (HSC‑iM), linking lifelong inflammatory exposure to aging and disease. 📄 Article: nature.com/articles/s41586-0… Grateful to an incredible team and global collaborators 💚💙

@rheumrob,@AlexBickMDPhD, & I are excited to share that our work is now out in @jclinicalinvest! CHIP epi studies underestimate the association between CHIP & disease using WGS vs deep sequencing. Many thanks to the co-authors, participants, & reviewers! doi.org/10.1172/JCI198861

Clonal hematopoiesis driven by Dnmt3a mutations promotes metabolic disease development in mice In this Research Letter, Bowen Yan @BowenyanYan, Olga A. Guryanova @gur_ola @UFHealthCancer @UF_Pharmacolo& team @UFMedicine report #ClonalHematopoiesis, an #aging related condition caused by mutations in the #blood system, promotes #obesity, and drives the risk of #diabetes and #MASLD in the context of a high-fat #diet: doi.org/10.1172/JCI197100

📢 Online today: Ancestry-dependent patterns of somatic mosaicism and clonal hematopoiesis mutations in over 125,000 individuals reveal distinct cancer associations rdcu.be/eSROU. A huge feat with pretty figures, driven by #ChristelleColinLeitzinger. 👏

Happy to share that our work on TET2 CH in ICI therapy is now out in @CR_AACR! We found that TET2 mutations promote myeloid co-stimulatory programs and suppress T cell exhaustion, contributing to improved immunotherapy response! 🔗Read more here: doi.org/10.1158/0008-5472.CA…

CHIP variants are often discovered incidentally in liquid biopsy testing, but is plasma cell-free DNA reliable when CHIP variants are the desired finding? 🩸@BloodAdvances @AlexBickMDPhD 🧵1/12

Primary Prevention of colon cancer. We don't measure CHIP (clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate origin, blood stem cell mutation) but it is the one factor that helps predict who will benefit from low dose aspirin jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
