Still wrapping my head around the fact that it’s finally out!! 🎉 From hypothesis in 2017 to data in 2020, it took 5 more years to fully prove the story. Long road for a lipid inhibitor, but worth it. Wonder how long a Nature paper takes… maybe I’ll find out soon! 😉 #ResearchLife

#NoTimeToDie! @inflammasomelab, Holley, Monteleone &co show @natimmunol.bsky.social that cells that die by #pyroptosis, or #necroptosis, are crowned with F-actin filopodia that makes them visible by dendritic cells via CLEC9A to initiate adaptive immunity! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Pyroptotic cell corpses are crowned with F-actin-rich filopodia that engage CLEC9A signaling in incoming dendritic cells - Nature Immunology
Pyroptotic cell death results in inflammation. Here the authors find that F-actin-rich structures formed during macrophage pyroptosis persist after cell death to activate dendritic cells.

How do macrophages sense SARS-CoV-2 infection to drive inflammation (protective or disease causing) in COVID-19? Our 2023 paper in Science Signalling helps explain 🧵
www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Macrophage ACE2 is necessary for SARS-CoV-2 replication and subsequent cytokine responses that restrict continued virion release
ACE2 in macrophages promotes infection that enables an intrinsic antiviral response to SARS-CoV-2.
