Congrats to our own @jesse_wotring in his most recent publication: validating lactoferrin’s anti-SARS-CoV-2 activity!

Drug-induced liver injury has always been a burden on drug development, calling for better in vitro liver models. In this study, we combined a protocol for developing human liver organoids from iPSCs and a microfluidic “chip” system towards that goal.

We are happy to announce our SARS-CoV-2 drug repurposing screen has just been published in PNAS! This was a massive team effort that would not be possible without many, including @ChristianeWobus @TheSpenceLab @ArulChinnaiyan @momeara

As #COVID19 manifests differently in different tissues we study their effects on a wide variety of cell lines. Cardiomyocytes are particularly interesting because you can watch them beat! Great work from Carla, @psychsiren!

Needed a physiological lung model, so I made one in an “organ-on-chip” system grown with @tristanfrum’s airway basal cells. Air flow and stretch applied to mimic breathing results in mucosal and ciliated cells. Hope to validate this for #COVID19 and other diseases! @SextonLabUM

@CaymanChemical Always making research possible! We used your FDA approved compound library to find drugs that can help fight SARS-CoV-2! Thank you for your help from a former Cayman Chemical intern under Holly Pierzynski and Nathan Layle! @SextonLabUM biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
