After injury, these neutrophils rapidly assemble rings of ECM around the wound that strengthen the barrier and limit bacterial entry. This program depends on TGF-β signaling within neutrophils;… [Listen](https://anchor.fm/s/102380f74/podcast/play/107091920/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2025-7-20%2F405953328-44100-2-4586cff5a1d53.m4a) ## [#26: Spatial Proteomics Uncovers a Lifesaving Treatment for Severe Skin Drug Reactions](https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/inflammatory-content/episodes/26-Spatial-Proteomics-Uncovers-a-Lifesaving-Treatment-for-Severe-Skin-Drug-Reactions-e3554q2) _2025-07-05 · Kellen Cavagnero, Ph.D. · Inflammatory Content_ In this episode of Inflammatory Content, Dr. Kellen Cavagnero dives into a landmark 2024 Nature study by Thierry Nordman and colleagues, titled “Spatial proteomics identifies JAKi as treatment for a lethal skin disease.” This cutting-edge research changes the game for patients suffering from toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN)—a devastating cutaneous adverse drug reaction with limited treatment… [Listen](https://anchor.fm/s/102380f74/podcast/play/105074946/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2025-6-5%2F403368215-44100-2-75603d16362c5.m4a) ## [#25: Immuno-endocrinology with Dr. Dequina Nicholas, Ph.D.](https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/inflammatory-content/episodes/25-Immuno-endocrinology-with-Dr--Dequina-Nicholas--Ph-D-e2vuf0j) _2025-03-08 · Kellen Cavagnero, Ph.D. · Inflammatory Content_ In this episode, Dr. Kellen Cavagnero is joined by Dr. Dequina Nicholas.
