Excuse me, but feces are a wonderful thing. My lab uses them to assess the integrity of the intestinal mucus barrier. This 👇🏻 is what it looks like. Please take it back.

I love these. The metal muff gives you that old school metal sound. Motorhead and such

Merry whatever you celebrate from the place this whole mess started ✝️☪️✡️💟

HO HO HO, Merry #MucusMonday!! This is imaging of the mucus layer encapsulating stool! Couldn't get more festive than this!! The green and red staining are sheets of mucus.

You know what time it is, #FecalFriday is back (except in the UK where it's #FaecalFriday)! Here is our poopscope imaging of mucus encapsulating a fecal pellet. GlcNAc (green) and Fuc (red). #Microscopy #IDSky #ImmnunoSky 🧪🦠🔬🧫

You've waited and now it's here! #MucusMonday is back! Our poopsicles turned into fecal sections stained with lectins to visualized the mucus layer encapsulating the feces. Shoutout to Kirk Bergstrom (UBC) for describing these two distinct layers. Was it worth the wait @achillebro.bsky.social ?

It's time for #FecalFriday! Here are some "poopsicles" for your enjoyment. Yes, we have a good reason for doing this. You'll find out on #MucusMonday

It's that time again! #MucusMonday baby! Today we get a little mechanistic. On the left is a colon section from a normal (WT) mouse after we pharmacologically reduced ER stress. This resulted in a lot of mucus secretion (the blue on top). On the right is a mouse that's missing an important gene/1

הרעיון לפיתוח של תרופת ההרזיה אוזמפיק ודומיה הגיע ממחקר על לטאה בשם glia monster. החוקרים גילו שהיא מייצר הורמון שגורם לשובע מתמשך שמאוד דומה להורמון glp1 בבני אדם. והשאר היסטוריה

🎵"It's just another #Mucus Monday". This week, we look inside to see how the magic happens. TEM image of a goblet cell producing mucus. The nucleus on top, below that the ER and below it the Golgi producing mucus-filled granules. #immunosky 🧪 🧫 🔬 🦠

Here are some small intestinal villi swimming in #Mucus (light blue) to brighten your Friday 🧪 🧫 🦠

This is not a knock on scRNA. There are beautiful, mechanistic works using scRNAseq that provided new knowledge. For example works by Ido Amit and Miriam Merad. But another atlas? An N of 3 is ridiculous. It doesn't matter that each one had thousands of cells. This wouldn't fly even at MDPI

Every day is a day for #Mucus. Here's a cross section of mouse large intestine with red mucus filling the lumen. Kind of looks like a heart to me. 🧪 🦠 🧫 🔬 🐭

I'll respect your will to disengage. Just know that the hateful narrative you spread here has real concenquences for people in the real world. And this is anything but ad hom
