We don't make the cover often (this is only the 2nd time ever). We don't even publish that often. But this took many years of work, by very many people, and I am immensely grateful to each and every one of them. @E_lisa_M_artini @Marco_Cremo @AriFelicetta @SimonSerio @gcondorelli
@CircRes Jan 3rd Issue is Out! ahajrnls.org/3wPOBJJ About the cover: Cardiac Autoimmunity versus Tolerizing Heart Failure vaccination
A specialized spleen macrophage population—expressing the markers CD169 and Tim4—mobilizes after MI to drive repair, clear neutrophils & reduce HF risk. A new frontier in cardioprotection via the cardiosplenic axis. @ssbansal_pshvi @SDPrabhuMD ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.11…

Broken Heart Syndrome (known as Takotsubo Syndrome) can occur acutely after intense physical or emotional stress. Its sequelae, from a Scottish registry, including increased hospital readmission, are more serious than generally perceived acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/AN… @AnnalsofIM
Happy to share our latest paper in JITC, on the “bottom of the iceberg” of tumor immunotherapy myocarditis. Defining this is important, whilst waiting for prognosis and therapy. Many thanks to all onco/cardio/radio/immunologists involved: jitc.bmj.com/content/13/3/e…
When it pours, it rains...for good this time!😃2nd pub of the week for our team of talented trainees @SashaSmolgovsky @AbeBayer and collaborators @annetkiraboc1 @endocelldoc 👇 doi.org/10.1016/j.yjmc
Our findings build on the recent cool work of @kallikourdis @E_lisa_M_artini @CondorelliLab in @CircRes pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39629560/

Alert Stromal Cell Marvels, my newly established group at Uniklinik Freiburg, is seeking a student for a Master/PhD project. If you are interested in stromal cell-immune cell interaction at the borders of the CNS and beyond – drop me a message.
Read all about it:
@E_lisa_M_artiniz et al found the #autoimmune component of PO HF is sufficient to enable exploitation of tolerizing #vaccine treatment. Learn more at ahajrnls.org/40n4Rjd @Marco_Cremo @gcondorelli @kallikourdis @SimonSerio @DAndreaCarla @AriFelicetta
Excellent seminar on Treg physiology and biology today by @LabPico at Humanitas; great data followed by a very stimulating and interactive discussion - on innate and adaptive immunity questions!
Thanks to @kallikourdis !! For all the discussions and wonderful talk!
A heartfelt thank you to the good people of the CNIC for organizing a great meeting full of intense discussions!

#cnicconference @CNIC_CARDIO Marinos Kallikourdis @kallikourdis shared convincing data supporting that ischaemic heart failure is an autoimmune disease
#cnicconference family dinner! Thanks everyone for making this meeting so special!!! Immunology of cardiovascular diseases rocks!!! 🔥
#cnicconference @CNIC_CARDIO Mind-blowing 🤯data by Slava Epelman @EpelmanLab on cardiac #macrophage heterogeneity, how TLF+ MF contribute to regeneration & recent data on hESC-MFs improving the function of engineered cardiac microtissue! nature.com/articles/s4416…
Fascinating presentations about #autoimmunity & #heart #failure by @kallikourdis and @notimmuneatall at #CNICconference @CNIC_CARDIO
#CNICconference @CNIC_CARDIO @MiyaraShoval @UriAlonWeizmann discussed their results on a macrophage-myofibroblast cell circuit defining cold and hot fibrosis in clinically distinct cardiac pathologies
Applications are open for a short-term (potential to extend) junior PDRA position in my lab! Work will be on preclinical models of maternal inflammation during pregnancy and impact on the cardiovascular system. Please see advert below for more info 👇🏽 qmul-jobs.tal.net/vx/mobile-0/ap…
