Another exciting story from our group! We showed that both paracellular and transcellular transport, particularly exocytosis govern nanoparticle translocation across lymphatic endothelial cells using basic kinetic modeling. Check out our new manuscript: pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021…

Para- and Transcellular Transport Kinetics of Nanoparticles across Lymphatic Endothelial Cells

Lymphatic vessels have received significant attention as drug delivery targets, as they shuttle materials from peripheral tissues to the lymph nodes, where adaptive immunity is formed. Delivery of...

Very excited to share our newest work led by Dr. Mayowa Amosu demonstrating CpG-ODN can treat the rare lung disease lymphangioleiomyomatosis. We show that CpG activates plasmacytoid dendritic cells and leads to cytotoxic CD8 T cell responses against LAM doi.org/10.1165/rcmb.2023-04…
