| Unlocking the Immune System | 19 Oct 2025 | 00:21:17 | |
Our guest in this new episode is an academic super star: Prof. Carmit Levy who is the Chair of the Department of Human Molecular Genetics & Biochemistry at the Gray Faculty of Medicine. Levy is a renowned researcher in the area of skin cancer. Prof. Levy and her team recently made a groundbreaking discovery involving a protein called Ly6a, which acts as a “brake” on the immune system. This protein, expressed both after UV exposure and in tumors, prevents immune cells from attacking cancer effectively. In experimental studies, the team showed that blocking Ly6a with a specific antibody reactivated the immune response, causing tumors to shrink—even in cases resistant to existing immunotherapies.This research, published in Nature Communications, not only advances our understanding of the immune system but also points toward entirely new treatment possibilities. Join us as we explore with Prof. Levy how this discovery was made, its future potential, and what it means for the fight against cancer. __________________ Tel Aviv 360, Israel's largest and most diverse podcast about research and innovation • Tel Aviv 360 in Facebook ◄ https://360tau.com/Facebook • Tel Aviv 360 in WhatsApp (Silent group) ◄ https://360tau.com/WhatsApp • Tel Aviv 360 in Spotify ◄ https://360tau.com/Spotify • Tel Aviv 360 official website ◄ https://360tau.com | |||

In this new episode Prof. Adler-Abramovich is educating us about applications of nano science and materials designed and fabricated in a lab that were inspired by nature (bio-inspired materials). What started as applications for dental sciences, especially with bones, became critically important due to applications across the board from Osteoporosis among the elderly (Osteoporosis is a condition that weakens bones, making them more prone to fractures. It is a common condition, especially in postmenopausal women and older adults), to the regeneration of skin cells. Prof. Lihi: "In my Laboratory of Bioinspired Materials is focused on mimicking self-assembly processes that occur in nature, including biomineralization and the organization of short peptides and amino acids into ordered nanostructures. We are a material science laboratory with emphasis on organic chemistry and medical-biological applications. The group is developing new organic materials that are used for various applications, such as 3D hydrogels for bone tissue regeneration, which exhibit extraordinary mechanical properties and durability, along with biocompatibility and controlled drug release." __________________ Tel Aviv 360, Israel's largest and most diverse podcast about research and innovation • Tel Aviv 360 in Facebook ◄ https://360tau.com/Facebook • Tel Aviv 360 in WhatsApp (Silent group) ◄ https://360tau.com/WhatsApp • Tel Aviv 360 in Spotify ◄ https://360tau.com/Spotify • Tel Aviv 360 official website ◄ https://360tau.com | |||
