In vivo screening reveals new regulators of Natural Killer cell development and functional response to acute cytomegalovirus infection

The paper identifies novel regulators of NK cell development and antiviral function through in vivo screening in mice, with relevance to human health.

Cure of experimental Trypanosoma vivax infection with a single dose of an unmodified antibody-based drug targeting the invariant flagellum cell surface protein IFX

This paper shows that a single dose of an unmodified anti-IFX monoclonal antibody can cure T. vivax infections in mice, with no detectable parasites in peripheral tissues.

Host microbiome determines host specificity of the human whipworm, Trichuris trichiura

This study shows that the human whipworm's host specificity is driven by the host microbiome, using a humanized-microbiota mouse model and metagenomic analysis.
