🧨💥Our latest work is out @cellreportsmedicine! We uncovered #p38MAPK mediated #proliferation stress as the culprit of functional #impairment of #HSC during exvivo #gene #editing. p38 inhibition endows edited HSC with high #clonal #output and better preserved genome #integrity!
1/4- 📢I am thrilled to announce that @DiMiccoLab's latest study, "A p38 MAPK-ROS axis fuels proliferation stress and DNA damage during CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing in Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells" (cell.com/cell-reports-medici…) is now out in @CellRepMed! Read more below👇

1/7 Excited to share our team’s first paper revealing how senescent cells use the GD3 ganglioside as a Senescence Immune Checkpoints (SICs) to bypass immune surveillance published in @NatureAging ! rdcu.be/d4XXJ

Study shows that senescent cells literally sugar-coat themselves to avoid recognition and clearance by the immune system. nature.com/articles/s43587-0…

If you are interested in senescence, ageing and age-related diseases, you can apply for Postdoc and PhD Fellowships in my lab. I´ll help you with the application! Calls close end Jan 2025!
Happy holidays!!!

We are deeply thankful to all the speakers for sharing their amazing finding with the GIIN community.
We also thank a lot our community for attending and stimulating fruitful discussions!
We wish you all a wonderful festive season.
See you all in January!

This study was brilliantly led by a 💥 graduate student @dellaVolpe_L now a postdoc in Vijay Sankaran @bloodgenes lab (watch out for her outstanding work over there as well!), and brought to completion by twitterless students Fede and Roby. Perseverance and teamwork always payoff
It truly takes a village! Thanks to everyone else who contributed and to our funding agencies @ERC_Research @nyscf @HFSP @AIRC_it @Telethonitalia @MinisteroSalute. Looking forward to move these findings into innovative gene editing applications!
