Host transcriptional programs underlying lesion development in contagious bovine pleuropneumonia

This study identifies host transcriptional changes during different stages of Mmm infection in cattle, revealing immune and tissue remodeling pathways involved in lesion progression.

Growth-state as a determinant of in vivo virulence of Mycoplasma pneumoniae

This study shows that different growth states of Mycoplasma pneumoniae affect its virulence in mice, with planktonic cells causing more severe lung pathology than biofilm-associated cells.

Host prior exposure augments heterogeneity in gene expression in both host and pathogen during in vivo infection

This study shows prior pathogen exposure increases gene expression heterogeneity in both host and pathogen during reinfection in house finches.

A 14-Color Blue-Violet Laser Restricted Full Spectrum Flow Cytometry Panel for Comprehensive Immunophenotyping of Pulmonary Inflammation in Mouse Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid

This paper introduces a 14-color flow cytometry panel for immunophenotyping pulmonary inflammation in mice, enabling comprehensive analysis of immune cell populations and their dynamics.

Paying upfront: successful initial infections protect against severe future infections

The study shows that successful initial infections in house finches protect against severe future infections, with males being more susceptible than females.
