Natural, un-natural and detached mimicry [PDF]
, 2019 Natural mimicry is ubiquitous. Plants mimic animals, animals mimic plants, animals mimic each other and animals may even mimic counterfactual states that deceive or distract other animals.

An Overview of Vasculogenic Mimicry in Breast Cancer
Frontiers in Oncology, 2020 Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is the formation of vascular channels lacking endothelial cells. These channels are lined by tumor cells with cancer stem cell features, positive for periodic acid-Schiff, and negative for CD31 staining.

Host-microbiota interactions shaping T-cell response and tolerance in type 1 diabetes
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Type-1 Diabetes (T1D) is a complex polygenic autoimmune disorder involving T-cell driven beta-cell destruction leading to hyperglycemia. There is no cure for T1D and patients rely on exogenous insulin administration for disease management.

The Cooperation Link: Power and Context Moderate Verbal Mimicry [PDF]
, 2019 Drawing on theories of mimicry as a schema-driven process, we tested whether the degree of verbal mimicry is dependent on the congruence between interactants’ power dynamic (symmetric vs. asymmetric), task type (cooperative vs.

Nature Communications, 2020 Uncovering whether convergent adaptations share a genetic basis is consequential for understanding the evolution of phenotypic diversity. This information can help us understand the extent to which shared ancestry or independent evolution shape adaptive ...

Autoimmunity to hypocretin and molecular mimicry to flu in type 1 narcolepsy
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018 Significance This work shows that the amidated terminal ends of the secreted hypocretin (HCRT) peptides (HCRTNH2) are autoantigens in type 1 narcolepsy, an autoimmune disorder targeting HCRT neurons.

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Who to whom and why: The social nature of emotional mimicry.
Psychophysiology, 2020 The goal of this manuscript is to provide support for the notion that emotional mimicry is a social act. For this, I will provide a brief overview of recent developments in the domain of emotional mimicry research.

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (
