Highlights from @TerkildB and @ChellaKrishnaV study published in blood - check the thread for more details!
Can bacterial infections make cancer cells resistant to treatment? In Sézary Syndrome (SS), it turns out they can! Want to know more? I will summarize some highlights from our recent study @BloodJournal below. doi.org/10.1182/blood.202302…

New @BloodJournal study by @ChellaKrishnaV and @TerkildB from Niels Ødum’s group @skinucph show bacterial infections can make cancer cells resistance to anti-cancer drugs #Staphaureus #bacteria #CTCL #Cancer #drugresistance
Targeting bacteria, their toxins, and downstream signaling pathways in malignant T cells abrogate the induction of drug resistance. ow.ly/xrt850ReqcE #lymphoidneoplasia #immunobiologyandimmunotherapy

I was ever so delighted for another opportunity to participate at #SICSpringtimeSchool. I formed a lot of new connections that may someday lead to fruitful collaborations, and I am honoured to say that my presentation won one of two prizes for best short talk. 🏅 🥳
