Super excited to share that the final version of our study on the role of Adenylate Kinase 7 (AK7) on centriole maturation is finally out!

@devbiol.bsky.social

Read the full version here:

Centriolar defects underlie a primary ciliary dyskinesia phenotype in an adenylate kinase 7 deficient ciliated epithelium
The skin of Xenopus embryos contains numerous multiciliated cells (MCCs), which collectively generate a directed fluid flow across the epithelial surf…

The effector caspases drive cell death, but their activation can often be survived, so how do cells make this decision? Our new preprint from @levayerr.bsky.social shows that instantaneous caspase activity is important, but past activation has a key role to play!

So happy to share that our review on epithelial cell extrusion is out! @levayerr.bsky.social

Extrusion is such a plastic, context-dependent process, so capturing it visually in the poster that accompanies the article was a super challenging but fun task!

Epithelial cell extrusion at a glance
Summary: Cell extrusion is a conserved process that leads to seamless expulsion of epithelial cells from tissues. This Cell Science at a Glance describes the functions and underlying mechanisms of cel...

How is extrusion of infected host cells related to ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase) activity?

Hi, I’m @hundsdorfer.bsky.social from the @effiebastounis.bsky.social lab. Let’s follow the recent development of bacterially-infected cell extrusion & mechanochemical ERK activity waves.

It is a small step and the mountain to climb is still very high, but we were quite happy to be the guinea pig of our department @devstempasteur.bsky.social to be the first to get the @mygreenlab (not yet on bluesky 🤔) certification. Still a lot to do but at least the process and dynamics started.
