It's always a pleasure to spend the day out with the lab. Today was all about sharing our research and hearing about the other work going on in the department.
I was able to share and get valuable feedback on our latest insights on NINJ1 in #celldeath and #inflammation.

It’s DIB day! The annual conference for our department @dib-unil.bsky.social. Lovely day (and view!) at the Lausanne Olympic museum exchanging with our colleagues. Plus a stellar presentation on NINJ1 by our own @elliottbernard.bsky.social 🔬!

Check out our latest pre print! Alexandra and colleagues show that the enigmatic inflammasome receptor, NLRP6 is activated by sterile and pathogen induced endolysosomal damage. Hot off the press!

Sterile- or pathogen-induced endolysosomal damage activate the NLRP6 inflammasome in human intestinal epithelial cells
NLRP6 controls host defense against bacteria and viruses in the gastrointestinal tract by a poorly understood mechanism. Here, we report that NLRP6 forms an inflammasome upon endolysosomal damage caus...

New research revealed how NINJ1 is kept inactive in living cells. Head over to Nature News & Views to check out our thoughts on these cool findings. Free to read at rdcu.be/d2nqH
First real bluesky post 🥳 Did you know that NINJ1 exists as an autoinhibited dimer in the PM of cells? In a News & Views, @elliottbernard.bsky.social and Petr describe new results from Dixit & Deshpande, including a resting structure of NINJ1 with 3 helices! Check it out here: rdcu.be/d2nqH

Ninjurin-1 mediated plasma membrane rupture is a two-step process requiring cell swelling
Plasma membrane rupture (PMR) and the release of cytosolic content are hallmarks of necrotic cell death. The plasma membrane protein ninjurin-1 (NINJ1) actively promotes cell lysis by polymerizing int...
