Just so fascinated by how cancer cells die in different manner after radiation therapy. A great contribution from the @thecesarelab.bsky.social. Congratulations @szmyd-radoslaw.bsky.social!
My research is finally out!

Huge thanks to @thecesarelab.bsky.social, @radoncdocgee.bsky.social, and everyone involved for their invaluable support along the way.

Briefly, we have demonstrated that cell cycle dependent DSB repair pathways guide death outcomes following lethal genomic damage.
1/Delighted to announce the newest paper from our lab, “Homologous recombination promotes non-immunogenic mitotic cell death upon DNA damage”, is out today in @naturecellbiology.bsky.social, www.nature.com/articles/s41....

Biorxiv posted an audio summary for my recent pre-print and amazingly it makes my work easier to understand 🤩

It turns out that the forces applied to cells as they are ejected from a tissue affects whether those cells 'live' or 'die'.

Dynamic forces shape the survival fate of eliminated cells - Nature Physics
Tissues eliminate unwanted cells through cell extrusion, but the factors determining whether these extuded cells live or die are not fully understood. Now force transmission across adherens junctions ...

How much cells adapt their mechanical properties to match the stiffness of underlying substrate? In Part II we report how paclitaxel-stabilized microtubules modulate the cytoskeleton adaptation to compliant substrates.
