Our department spent the weekend in Šumava for the annual PhD retreat — sharing research, ideas, and great company. Between sessions we hiked, enjoyed good food, and soaked in the autumn scenery. Thanks to everyone who made it such a great mix of work and fun! @fscusb.bsky.social

BREAKING: The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded jointly to Mary E. Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell, and Shimon Sakaguchi "for their discoveries concerning peripheral immune tolerance"

Stay tuned for more.

Immune cells don’t just fight infection—they manage the body’s energy too. A Trends in Biochemical Sciences spotlight on Nedbalova et al. shows they release adenosine, signaling other tissues to dial down energy use.

Macrophages promote tumor growth by phagocytosis-mediated cytokine amplification in Drosophila
Hirooka et al. show that Draper-mediated phagocytosis induces Upd3 in macrophages, amplifying tumor-derived Upds and activating JAK/STAT signaling, which promotes RasV12/scrib tumor growth in Drosophi...

Adenozin - známá molekula, na kterou se molekulární biologové z Jihočeské univerzity podívali jinou optikou. Výsledek jejich výzkumu zaujal prestižní časopis Science. Na první pohled složitý mechanismus, na druhý už nesmírně zajímavý a univerzální proces, který se děje v každém organismu.
Jihočeská univerzita v Českých Budějovicích - Nový pohled na známou molekulu: pomocí adenozinu si buňka říká o víc energie. Podle jihočeských vědců to zásadně souvisí s tím, jak pracuje naše imunita
