Acute priming using elevated fluid viscosity recovers young-like single-cellsurveillance behaviors in aged human T cells

Yoseph W. Dance, Alice Amitrano, Annaka M. Saffron, Chanhong Min, Ladaisha T. Thompson, Zhuoxu Ge, Ian Michael Smith, Nicolas C. Macaluso, Charles Ezenwanne, Nicholas Milcik, Abigail Fennell, Kendall A. Pyndell, Kimberly M. Stroka, Jeremy D Walston, Sean X. Sun, , Jude M. Phillip

This study shows that increasing fluid viscosity can temporarily restore young-like surveillance behaviors in aged human T cells by improving deformability and sensing.

Selective estradiol sensitivity in 12Z human endometriotic epithelial cell line

Shohini Banerjee, Esha Chopra, Ian Michael Smith, Kimberly M. Stroka

This study investigates the responsiveness of the 12Z human endometriotic epithelial cell line to estradiol, finding it lacks functional sensitivity in most assays but shows selective response in 3D migration under confinement.
