## Resource

In this week's episode of the Blood podcast, editor Dr. James Griffin interviews Drs. Christian Gorzelanny and Rebecca Leaf on their latest articles published in this week's issue of Blood . Dr. Gorzelanny discusses compelling evidence for a new mechanism that amplifies their proinflammatory actions in " Lipid nanotubes unmask neutrophils for complement attack ", demonstrating the pathological role of this process in a range of inflammatory disorders in order to stimulate intense study of how to regulate nanotube formation for therapeutic benefit. In " Immune thrombocytopenia in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors " Dr. Leaf and colleagues define the incidence, clinical features, and outcomes of ICI-induced immune thrombocytopenia. Showing that ICI-induced immune thrombocytopenia is associated with excess mortality, these data should provide an impetus to greater recognition and to protocolization of effective interventions.
