PhD student at VIB-CCB 👩🏻🔬 Cancer biology, cell death, and chasing little organelles 🔬 Food and music lover, professional singer in the shower 🍕
Excited to share my PhD paper out now in Nature Metabolism! 🚨 We studied how intracellular iron trafficking controls ferroptosis vulnerability in melanoma. Shout-out to @agostinislab.bsky.social and all collaborators who made this possible! @natmetabolism.nature.com
Do melanoma cells rewire interorganelle iron flow? ⚡️We found that BDH2 controls lysosome-to-mitochondria Fe2+ transport, coupling lysosomal pH to ferroptosis vulnerability. Huge congrats to @francirizz.bsky.social, thanks to @juliebonnereau.bsky.social and collabs 🙏

BDH2-driven lysosome-to-mitochondria iron transfer shapes ferroptosis vulnerability of the melanoma cell states - Nature Metabolism
Rizzollo et al. show that BDH2 participates in iron distribution between cellular compartments, which sets the threshold for the ferroptosis vulnerability of the melanoma cell phenotypes, ultimately a...

Hi Bluesky 🦋 I’m Nico, a microglia enthusiast based in VIB, Belgium 🧠 if you are curious about the science we do, take a look at our latest work! Here we use xenotransplantation models to map the spectrum of human microglia responses to Alzheimer’s disease pathology www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Xenografted human microglia display diverse transcriptomic states in response to Alzheimer’s disease-related amyloid-β pathology - Nature Neuroscience
Human microglia transplanted in the mouse brain mount a multipronged response to amyloid-β pathology, displaying unique transcriptional states. Alzheimer’s disease risk genes are differentially regula...
