chemokines, exosomes, etc. Briefly, the cellular composition and functional status of TME varies depending on a range of conditions such as the site of tumorigenesis, the inherent characteristics of cancer cells, tumor stage, and patient features. Alterations...
In contrast to related fields such as plant-pathogen interactions, the molecular relationships that determine (in)compatibility of plant-aphid interactions are relatively poorly understood. Specific resistance to plant pathogens frequently involves recognition of pathogen effectors, often by resistance proteins...

For these pathogens, the cellular immune response comprising CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells or both can be important in controlling infection and preventing or delaying the onset of disease. Thus vaccine development for these infections is focused on generating protective T-cell responses1. A key ...
Human campylobacteriosis usually presents as diarrhoea, however, clinical manifestations can also include (but are not limited to) long-term complications such as reactive arthritis and Guillain-Barré syndrome. The cost of campylobacteriosis in low and middle-income countries remains unknown, but it...
Respiratory mucus of MADs provides a niche for recurrent and persistent colonization by respiratory pathogens, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which is responsible for the majority of morbidity and mortality in MADs. Despite high concentration inhaled antibiotic therapies and the absence of antibiotic ...
cells to 2D ALI cultures now allows straight-forward simulations of apical viral respiratory infections of a self-renewing cell type that can be scaled up nearly inexhaustibly and studied in a highly pure form, thus simulating cell-autonomous or “epithelial-only” host responses to pathogens. ...
an altered relationship between intestinal microbes and the immune system. In an attempt to target the pathogens afflicting you, your body goes to war with all the creatures in your intestines, and the intense pain, bleeding, and all-too frequent trips to the toilet are the collateral damage....
