Light on DARC and Other Atypical Chemokine Receptors!
A team finds that the #chemokine CXCL12 can support the production of #RedBloodCells in mice, suggesting that this pathway could be investigated for the treatment of disorders related to red blood cells. @stevenduke @GutjahrJulia @QMULWHRI scim.ag/446wONU
Un joli erythroblaste. Un érythroblaste est une cellule jeune de la lignée des globules rouges, présente dans la moelle osseuse. Elle contient encore un noyau, ce qui la distingue des globules rouges matures (érythrocytes), qui en sont dépourvus.

A preclinical study uncovers a metabolic pathway that offers a target in neuropathic pain, scientists discover how chemokines can support red blood cell production in mice, and more this week in #ScienceSignaling. scim.ag/3HEv8no
Not all chemokine signaling is about cell migration! In mouse erythroblasts, CXCL12-bound CXCR4 enters the nucleus to control gene transcription, trigger calcium bursts, and drive red blood cell formation—especially enucleation. 🔗 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… #chemokine #CXCR4
science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… We describe the hitherto overlooked expression of CXCR4 in erythroblasts, which do not migrate in response to CXCR4 ligation by CXCL12. Instead, CXCR4 localises to the nucleus and mediates alternative responses in erythroblast maturation and enucleation

Although chemokines are known for their role in cell migration, new work in mice shows that CXCL12 also promotes the differentiation of #erythroblasts by promoting CXCR4 signaling and activity in the nucleus. @stevenduke @GutjahrJulia @QMULWHRI scim.ag/446wONU

Proud to share that our recent publication in Science Signaling has been featured on the Science website today! 🧬🔬 It’s a great feeling to see our work reach a broader audience. Many thanks to all collaborators Check out the feature here: science.org #Science
Poorly validated antibodies fuel the reproducibility crisis. @YCharOS1 shares a protocol for antibody validation using KO cell lines tinyurl.com/NP-article tinyurl.com/NP-comment Glad that our study is cited as an example for improving data quality tinyurl.com/CSC-Letter
🚀 New Postdoc Position 🚀 We offer a 3-year postdoc position to investigate how vascular #aging impacts #immunecell function. 🔬 We’d be grateful if you could help spread the word! 🙏 @QMUL @QMULWHRI 👉qmul-jobs.tal.net/vx/mobile-0/ap… #Postdoc #AcademicTwitter #ResearchOpportunity
Only 8K? possible to screen all of these quickly, in ....decades. Would there be grant money to finance such massive katharsis?
