.Maizels Lab & Gause review type 2 immunity in helminth worm infections, in the skin, lung, & intestinal tract, requiring the orchestration of adaptive immunity to concentrate innate effector cells and mechanisms in scale & focus at the site of infection. bit.ly/3YTb8BL


Targeting helminths: The expanding world of type 2 immune effector mechanisms. A new review from Rick Maizels Maizels Lab University of Glasgow and William Gause Rutgers New Jersey Medical School: bit.ly/3YTb8BL #Th2Responses #InnateImmunity #InfectiousDisease #HostDefense


🎤 Final Call: There's still time to sign up for a talk or poster at our upcoming ECR Symposium in University of Dundee Deadline: 30 September.


In this review, Maizels Lab & Gause summarize how type 2 immune responses combat helminth parasites through novel mechanisms: bit.ly/3YTb8BL From our #Cytokines Collection: bit.ly/3RScNGy #Cytokines2023



As a new Wellcome Early Career Award Fellow at UofG Sii University of Glasgow, I am seeking a Technician to join me in investigating malaria gametocytes in the skin. Please see the job advert at: findajob.dwp.gov.uk/details/132502…. Informal enquiries happily received at [email protected]

Happy to share this preprint from Maizels Lab decribing smartness of a murine parasite H. polygyrus. The helminth TGF-beta mimic TGM4 is a modular ligand that binds CD44, CD49d and TGF-beta receptors to preferentially target myeloid cells biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

The snow is delaying our trip to Belfast for a bit of sightseeing and #BSI2023 ! BSI Congress & Events British Society for Immunology Very excited to attend this conference again. Always delivering great science, friends (new and old) and a new city during the Christmas season! ❄️


Want to know more about how Spatial Transcriptomics can help us understanding the early responses to Hpoly 🪱 in the gut? Come to see my poster (P121) today at #BSI23 British Society for Immunology BSI Congress & Events


New preprint is out! 📣 Maizels Lab We have done Spatial Transcriptomics on H. polygyrus infected guts 🪱🔬🧬 and found new insights into how the host defends itself against this very cool parasite! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
