Findings by @tpsinglab @pscottlab and colleagues @pennvet @PennMedicine have clinical ramifications for cutaneous leishmaniasis and other skin diseases associated with a dysregulated microbiome when Tregs are limited or dysfunctional. bit.ly/3MgOlen #InfectiousDisease

This cover is amazing! Our recent publication is here! Evaluating the role of #skin #microbiome in driving IL-1b #immunopathology in cutaneous #leishmaniasis
The new special issue on zoonotic diseases has arrived! Articles this week explore the latest research and counterstrategies for zoonotic threats, including an Editorial from Anthony Fauci and research on how the skin microbiome influences leishmaniasis. scim.ag/4vr

We highlight how the human microbiome can shape disease outcomes in cutaneous leishmaniasis and suggest pathways toward host-directed therapies to mitigate the inflammatory consequences. Nice work @amorim_cfa @microbiome @RNAseq @immunology science.org/doi/10.1126/scit…

We appreciate immensely the @LionakisLab, for your insights on our recent work showing that Foxp3 Rorγt Tregs suppress pathogenic IFN-γ responses to control S. aureus growth @tpsinglab @pscottlab #eGrice

Study by Singh, Scott et al. @PennMedicine involving mice and #Leishmania braziliensis patients reveals that Treg levels function as a rheostat, controlling bacteria in the skin & influencing whether bacteria induce IL-17 or IFN-γ-mediated immunopathology. bit.ly/3MgOlen

Being Dr. Alan Sher's scientific granddaughter is a real privilege and honor. Today I had the opportunity to hear again what I've been learning from @pscottlab over the years: "The parasites teach us a lot about immunology." at @MBLScience @MBLBoP @WHIP42266646
