1/ Incredibile ma è successo. È appena uscito su @ScienceAdvances il paper a cui ho lavorato tutta l'estate in collaborazione con il lab di Friburgo!

Tutto è cominciato da questo meraviglioso set up... ma di cosa tratta questa ricerca? Vediamolo assieme!
science.org/doi/full/10.11…
2/ Le cellule staminali sono un modello perfetto per ottenere cellule cardiache che battono spontaneamente e continuamente nel dish del laboratorio.

Quelle che vedete nel video sono proprio loro. Cellule atriali cardiache ottenute da staminali pluripotenti indotte. #18Novembre
3/ Recentemente è stato scoperto un canale (una proteina) chiamato WiChR che proviene dalla specie marina Wobblia Lunata.

Questo canale è estremamente sensibile alla luce blu e, in presenza di quest'ultima, si attiva provocando una corrente di potassio... dove voglio arrivare?

1/ Out now on @ScienceAdvances!

#StemCells are a wonderful tool to create atrial cardiomyocytes that spontaneously and continuosly beat in a dish… but what happens if we transfect them with the highly potassium selective channelrhodopsin WiChR? #Thread

science.org/doi/full/10.11…
2/ WiChR is a channel that comes from the marine species Wobblia Lunata.

Differently from previosly described K+-conducting channels such as HcKcR1, this channel is characterized by small photocurrent inactivation and improved light sensitivity. #Thread #Physiology #Optogenetics
3/ During my secondment and thanks to the collaboration with @JoH_VieR and other labs, we successfully transfected my hiPSC-derived atrial cardiomyocytes with WiChR.
This beating cluster in the video is one of those that I indented to get sharp electrode recording! #StemCell

There’s been some questions recently here about the types of #IBD research that @CrohnsColitisFn supports. I want to highlight some of the innovative projects that we are working on to bring us closer to our vision of a future free from #CrohnsDisease & #UlcerativeColitis.
.@CrohnsColitisFn is proud to be a collaborator on over 200 #IBD research projects in the US & around the world that are helping to improve patient quality of life and bring us closer to cures. Here are some examples:
We support the work of researchers at @ut_dallas who developed and are testing a wrist-watch like device that monitors sweat for biomarkers that could indicate an #IBD flare: crohnscolitisfoundation.org/blog/researche…

Quite remarkable results in this
5 year-old suffering severe post-effects of
a rare form of autoimmune 🧠encephalitis
journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/09… #snrtg #medtwitter #openscience #scicomm #neurology #immunology #stemcell
"The patient was in a vegetative state when she was first admitted to hospital and received cell therapy as a last resort."
...she is now ready to attend school.
These results need to be replicated in additional patients, however initial results look extremely compelling.

Important @ICMR statement on evidence based use of #StemCell Therapy based on critical review of literature & claims by large panel of academic clinicians, which I had the privilege to lead. #StemCells often hyped & shouldn't be offered as #StandardOfCare
Inherent public appeal of #StemCellTherapy is being exploited & promoted unethically as a #MagicRemedy to vulnerable patients & should be regulated. There are many diseases where Basic/Translational/Clinical Research can establish its utility @ISSCR @ICMR @fda @ema leads the way!
Acutely aware that patients & their groups want freedom to try whatever might help them & detest when the academic medical community or regulators are so hung up on #RiskBenefitRatio & good evidence and till then say this therapy they cannot take outside regulated clinical trials

Our first paper authors.elsevier.com/a/1cRqD6tu0Cbo… is now out @CellStemCell! With @ionispharma & the Jamieson Lab @UCSanDiegoDRM, we found that selective #antisense oligonucleotides inhibiting #IRF4 reduce disease burden & #multiplemyeloma #regeneration in #cancer models. @CellPressNews 1/ Image
IRF4 (interferon regulatory factor 4) is a key plasma cell transcription factor that is known to play a critical role in #myeloma progression. It's been shown to activate networks of #cellcycle and cancer regulators, including the notorious #cancer and #stemcell gene, #MYC. 2/ Image
In this new work, the talented @PhoebeMondala & @AshniVora first dug deeper into the IRF4 networks activated in high-risk forms of #myeloma, including #plasmacellleukemia. IRF4 target genes (SLAMF7, BCMA) were widely induced, especially among genes regulating the #cellcycle. 3/ Image

As #AspenIdeaHealth concludes today I will share with you some of my reflections. It was a pleasure to see @jrovner @EricTopol @davidrosenthal @olgakhazan @WalterIsaacson Aviv Regev of @MIT and others.
It is truly humbling and awe-inspiring to realize that our human body is made up of a congealing of pulsating energy and elements of the stardust that began its life with the primordial big bang.
The body has ~37 trillion cells that all began with a single event of the union of Shiva and Shakti and the creative energy expansion that followed. Here is Aviv Regev on cells:
