Look how cool, Felix Trogisch and Joerg Heineke highlight our decorin paper academic.oup.com/cardiovascre... in their last editorial in Cardiovascular Research academic.oup.com/cardiovascre.... I love the title ๐๐ป๐๐ป
Decorin expression is increased by ageing and contributes to inflammation and leakage.

Humans bearing mutations in vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGFC) or its receptor tyrosine kinase (FLT4) have defects in the formation of their lymphatic system, which is important for draining interstitial fluid back into the circulatory system. As a consequence, these patients display severe lymphedema (bottom left). In zebrafish, we have generated mutations in vegfc and flt4, both of which are conserved between zebrafish and humans. Like humans, zebrafish larvae also display lymphedema due to a failure to form a complete lymphatic system (bottom right).

Thank you Ruben!
Thank you!
Thanks Dan!
Happy to see our work, led by @ivanbassi.bsky.social, out today in @jem.org! #Zebrafish help us find new treatments for a #rare_disease affecting #lymphatic vessels! Congrats to all authors and thanks to #MDBRide4Rare, #ODC_UPenn, @erc.europa.eu for support @weizmanninstitute.bsky.social
Thanks Macarena! It is always a pleasure to have you around! You bring lots of energy to our community!
Bearded young man with a sack of flour over his shoulder speaking into a megaphone. His purple T says Standing Together in Arabic and Hebrew.
My friend Alon-Lee Green of the Palestinian-Jewish group @standing-together.bsky.social telling Israeli soldiers to refuse service in Gaza:
โRefuse to starve.
Refuse to kill.
Refuse occupation.
Refuse annihilation.โ
Tonight the heroic @standing-together.bsky.social, a movement of Jewish and Palestinan Israeli citizens, disrupted a broadcast of Israeli Big Brother to demand an end to the war. The T-shirt of the activist pictured says โgetting out of Gazaโ
During a live broadcast of Big Brother in Israel, members of Standing Together rush the stage wearing โLeave Gazaโ shirts and calling for an end to the genocide and against Netanyahuโs plan for permanent occupation.
