CAR T cells in the bone marrow maintain an activation state that results in inflammation that leads to hypoplasia 🇨🇵

CAR T cell–mediated bone marrow inflammation causes hematotoxicity and favors clonal hematopoiesis
CAR T cells are found in the bone marrow (BM), where they maintain an activation state that results in inflammation that leads to BM hypoplasia.

#InterferonPower! Thrilled for our latest work @cp-cell.bsky.social! With @danielboehmer.bsky.social, we dug into tons of papers & created what we hope will be a go-to resource for immunologists & non-immunologist about type I, II, III (& IV😉) #interferons!

I’m excited to highlight our latest paper, just published in Cell 🎉

We report the existence of a previously uncharacterized signaling pathway that is responsible for activating cell death upon loss of gene expression.

RNA Pol II inhibition activates cell death independently from the loss of transcription
When RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II) is inhibited, the inhibition is sensed and signaled to mitochondria, leading to programmed cell death independently of the loss of RNA Pol II transcription activity...

The joy of learning:
"In the early 1980s, it was discovered that 1 mutation in the fruit fly genome could specifically activate all copies of a retrovirus-like element called Gypsy in the female germline. The site of the mutations that made these Gypsies "dance" was thus called the flamenco locus."
