'We show that decidual tissues of women with preconception immunity against CMV exhibit intrinsic resistance to HCMV, mounting a rapid activation of tissue-resident memory CD8+ and CD4+ T cells upon HCMV reinfection.'

Barcelona here we come - via Spain*'s excellent highspeed train network.

'In 1550, the so-called “father of art history” Giorgio Vasari recorded that “since Botticelli was a learned man, he wrote a commentary on part of Dante’s poem, and after illustrating the Inferno, he printed the work.” The painter also made a portrait of Dante, Vasari tells us, and drew sketches for engravings in the first Florentine edition of The Divine Comedy in 1481.'

"Na exposição intitulada “As Mulheres de Maria Lamas” serão apresentadas pela primeira vez as provas originais e novas provas feitas, a partir dos negativos, por Luís Pavão, que estavam na posse da família. “Estava tudo muito bem guardado e classificado,” explica Jorge Calado. A partilha é, por isso, inédita e realiza-se no átrio da Biblioteca de Arte da Gulbenkian."

Arriving at the end of three wonderful weeks hosted by Sidonia & Masaki Tajima at Kyoto's Center for Cancer Immunotherapy & Immunobiology.
More on the center later, but you can browse their site at the link below 👇
'This was Coppola’s bid to take his place among the cinema’s image-masters, such as F. W. Murnau and King Vidor, who took bare-bones stories of an abstracted simplicity—at the edge of legend—and endowed them with overwhelming power through sheer visual impact.'
"Our data suggest that active Long Covid is accompanied by a blood protein signature marked by increased complement activation and thromboinflammation, including activated platelets and markers of red blood cell lysis. Tissue injury may also be complement-mediated and, in turn, activate the complement system." #Covid #LongCovid #Virology #Immunology https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adg7942
'More recently, Dr. Wooller and his colleagues figured out how to use mammoth tusks to track where the animals lived over the course of their life. They did so by measuring strontium, an element found in trace amounts in the plants the animals ate.'

At the Japanese Society of Immunology - pic is Sidonia's postdoc Baihao Zhang receiving an award for their work on GABA & B cells.
"Cell identity is generated from the epigenetic interpretation of the genome.”
On the second episode of the Helmholtz Pioneer Campus Podcast I discussed epigenetics & stem cells with Maria Elena Torres-Padilla, Boyan Bonev, and Wolf Reik.

"We show that mice lacking adaptive immune cells (rag−/− mice) do not develop clinical signs or weight loss from SARS-CoV-2 MA10 infection, whereas fully immunocompetent wild-type (WT) mice develop disease. While rag−/− mice had little to no lung pathology, virus levels were lower than WT mice early after infection, but not significantly decreased within 2 weeks of infection."

"This review provides an overview of how coronaviruses control viral and host translation during different stages of infection and compares these strategies to those of other RNA viruses. We focus on how Nsp1 from β-CoV hijacks the translation machinery and describe viral RNA features that promote viral evasion and programmed ribosomal frameshifting (PRF) in infected cells. Furthermore, we discuss other unique features of viral RNA and various stress response mechanisms triggered by coronaviral infection."
