Mmp17-deficient mice exhibit heightened goblet cell effector expression in the colon and increased resistance to chronic Trichuris muris infection

P. M. Vornewald, R. Forman, R. Yao, N. Parmar, H. T. Lindholm, M. Martin-Alonso, K. J. Else, M. J. Oudhoff

This study shows that Mmp17-deficient mice have increased goblet cell effector genes and resistance to Trichuris muris infection without changes in traditional immune modulators.

Cell-intrinsic IL4R alpha independence of large intestinal RELMα+ Ym1+ macrophages

R. Forman, L. B. Logunova, H. Smith, K. Wenyss, I. Mair, L. Boon, J. E. Allen, W. Müller, J. L. Pennock, K. J. Else

This study shows that RELMα+ Ym1+ macrophages in the large intestine can upregulate these markers without IL4R signaling, challenging the idea that IL4/IL13 is required for their activation.

In silico design of a T-cell epitope vaccine candidate for parasitic helminth infection

A. Zawawi, R. Forman, H. Smith, I. Mair, M. Jibril, M. Albaqshi, A. Brass, J. Derrick, K. Else

The paper designs a T-cell epitope vaccine candidate for Trichuris trichiura using in silico epitope prediction and virus-like particle delivery, showing reduced worm burden and immune responses in mice.
