Please help us congratulate Julien Habif on his recent publication titled “The role of a ciliary GTPase in the regulation of neuronal maturation of olfactory sensory neurons.” The publication findings demonstrate a previously unknown role of ARL13B in the maturation of Olfactory sensory neurons and development of the…
Congratulations to Dr. Brian Law for his two new grants funded by the Florida Department of Health: -Reducing racial disparity in breast cancer survival with a novel synthetic-lethal strategy-Optimizing novel small molecule activators of Death Receptor 5 for breast cancer therapy…
Please help us congratulate Gregory Takacs and Dr. Jeffrey Harrison on their recent publication titled “Glioma-derived CCL2 and CCL7 mediate migration of immune suppressive CCR2+/CX3CR1+ M-MDSCs into the tumor microenvironment in a redundant manner”. The study determined that CCR2 and its cognate ligands are prominent…
Congratulations to Greg Takacs, a BMS PhD student in Dr. Jeff Harrison’s lab, for receiving one of the 2022 UF Health Cancer Center Predoctoral Awards! The awards recognize and support outstanding predoctoral candidates who are conducting innovative cancer research. Dissertation Title: “Investigating mechanisms of CCR2+ myeloid…
Please help us congratulate Victoria Leroy and Dr. Ashish Sharma on their recent publication entitled “Resolution of post-lung transplant ischemia-reperfusion injury is modulated via Resolvin D1-FPR2 and Maresin 1-LGR6 signaling”. The research concluded that Bioactive proresolving lipid mediator-dependent signaling that is, RvD1/FPR2 and MaR1/LGR6- offers a novel…
Please help us congratulate Dr. Steve Munger on his contributions to the recent publication entitled: “The Adaptive Olfactory Measure of Threshold (ArOMa-T): A rapid test of olfactory function.” ArOMa-T is a novel odor detection threshold test that employs an adaptive Bayesian algorithm paired with a…
Please help us congratulate Dr. Papke’s Lab who published a paper in Molecular Pharmacology on November 22nd. The members who worked on the paper were Clare Stokes and Roger Papke. The publication, entitled “Insights into the differential desensitization of α4β2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor isoforms obtained with positive allosteric modulation of mutant…
This study titled, “Differential Activation and Desensitization States Promoted by Noncanonical α7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Agonists” reports a family of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonists that break the rules about what the structure of a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist should be. It shows that the activity of these noncanonical…
Check out the the contributions made by the Guryanova Lab in the recent publication “miR-196b-TLR7/8 Signaling Axis Regulates Innate Immune Signaling and Myeloid Maturation in DNMT3A-Mutant AML”. The research used DNA methylation and miRNA expression was evaluated in human AML patient samples and in Dnmt3a/Flt3-mutant AML mice.
We would like to highlight that Jonathan Bird and Zane Rowland have recently published an invited review in the Current Opinion on Cell Biology Journal. The review, titled “Myosin motors in sensory hair bundle assembly”, summarizes existing evidence for how MYO7A and MYO15A operate and how their…
