Now online! Macrophages direct location-dependent recall of B cell memory to vaccination
Macrophages direct location-dependent recall of B cell memory to vaccination
Subcapsular sinus macrophages in the draining lymph node help retain resident memory B cells in the subcapsular niche and promote their re-entry into secondary germinal centers. Boosting vaccines in the same arm leads to more rapid secretion of broadly neutralizing antibodies.

So excited to share our first neuro focused paper from the lab, we show that CXCL4 (PF4) is transported into the brain by proteoglycans within the endothelial glycocalyx and that GAG binding also mediates the pro neurogenesis effects of CXCL4. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

First map of human brain mitochondria is ‘groundbreaking’ achievement
Hundreds of cubes of human brain tissue help scientists to chart the energy-making capabilities of various brain regions.
