Abstract: BackgroundMembers of the thioester-containing protein (TEP) family contribute to host defence in both insects and mammals. However, their role in the immune response of Drosophila is elusive. In this study, we address the role of… read more here.

DOI: 10.15252/embr.202256036
Abstract: Host defense against infections encompasses resistance, which targets microorganisms for neutralization or elimination, and resilience/disease tolerance, which allows the host to withstand/tolerate pathogens and repair damages. In Drosophila, the Toll signaling pathway is thought to… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2021.823403
Abstract: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA), a class of RNA molecules without protein coding potential, are more than 200 nucleotides in length and widely present in a variety of species. Although increasing progress in regard to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2017.01151
Abstract: The Toll pathway is essential for inducing an immune response to defend against bacterial invasion in vertebrates and invertebrates. Although Toll receptors and the transcription factor Dorsal were identified in different shrimp, relatively little is… read more here.
