Rishika Abrol @abrol_rishika, Syeda Farhana Afroz @SyedaFarhana12, Divya Ramnath @DivyaRamnath and Matthew Sweet @TheSweetGroup @IMBatUQ @UQ_News find that histone deacetylase 7 mediates lipopolysaccharide-inducible mitochondrial fission in macrophages.

ALT Figure showing HDAC7 associates with mitochondrial fission protein DRP1 and drives LPS-inducible fission in macrophages.

Researchers have discovered a fault in the bacteria-killing zinc pathway in immune cells in people with cystic fibrosis, and a potential way to get around it to reduce infections.

I'm excited to share that our research from
@TheSweetGroup, on cystic fibrosis and how the heavy metal zinc could be beneficial in combating infections associated with CF, has finally been published in PNAS. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.23…
Many thanks to everyone involved in this project
