A hierarchy of cell death pathways confers layered resistance to shigellosis in mice

The paper shows that multiple cell death pathways work together to protect mice from Shigella infection, with some pathways compensating for others when one is removed.

IFN-γ-independent control of M. tuberculosis requires CD4 T cell-derived GM-CSF and activation of HIF-1α

This study identifies GM-CSF and HIF-1 activation as IFN-γ-independent mechanisms by which CD4 T cells control M. tuberculosis infection.
