🔥 Piping hot; fresh from the oven! Fever-like conditions accelerate immune cell speed and efficiency through thermoregulation of actomyosin contractility. Congrats to Ivan Company-Garrido, @alempheius.bsky.social, and @mcolomerr.bsky.social on this huge collaborative effort.

Ever wondered how to control stretch/compression in your epithelial system? Do you know why it’s important, which mechanotransduction mechanisms could be involved? I am @valeriaventurini.bsky.social and today I will guide you through this journey.

Please RT!

We're looking for a postdoc to join an exciting joint project between our lab @upf.edu & @crg.eu (Barcelona) and the Sander lab @mdc-berlin.bsky.social (Berlin) investigating how alternative splicing and microexons influences the maturation of pancreatic islets.

Deadline: 30/09/25👇

Thrilled to share that our "Poster at a Glance" on #Phagocytosis is out! Thank you @jcellsci.bsky.social @biologists.bsky.social for the invitation ! Prepared with @manondepierre.bsky.social @chiarapompili.bsky.social from @institutcochin.bsky.social journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...
Phagocytosis at a glance
Summary: Phagocytosis involves receptor-driven actin and membrane remodelling to engulf microbes and debris. The phagosome then matures for degradation, supporting both nutrition and immune responses.

Now online! Tissue geometry spatiotemporally drives bacterial infections
Tissue geometry spatiotemporally drives bacterial infections
Tissue-geometry-regulated cellular traction forces trigger the activation of Piezo1 and its co-localization with bacteria to facilitate the formation of specific bacterial invasion patterns to promote infection.

How innate immunity starts? Early embryos eliminate bacterial infections by epithelial phagocytosis, a conserved process from zebrafish to human embryos. Check our story:

I knew there would be an effect! This has been one of the questions that I had for the longest time. Changing the mechanics of the substrate affects phagocytosis. Very interesting paper!
