Preconception e-nicotine impairs airway development and progenitor proliferation across generations in Drosophila Melanogaster

Leizhi Shi, Qiaoyan Tan, Fan Xu, Hanna Angstmann, Judith Bossen, Sandra Uzenabor, Sven Kuenzel, Daniel Meissner, Birte Ehrhardt, Goeksel Dogan, Beate Höschler, Sai Sneha Priya Nemani, Klaus Friedrich Rabe, Cecilie Svanes, Thomas Roeder, Susanne Krauss‐Etschmann

This study shows that preconception e-nicotine exposure in Drosophila leads to airway developmental defects and physiological abnormalities that persist across generations.

Differential methanogenic archaea-induced TLR8-dependent signaling is governed by NF-κB p65- and STAT1/2-controlled gene classes

Fan Xu, Johann Sieverding, Peiling Zhou, Shoshant Sah, Viktoria Weinberger, Christine Moissl‐Eichinger, Inken Wohlers, Holger Heine

The paper identifies differential TLR8-dependent immune responses induced by two methanogenic archaea, showing distinct gene-class activation patterns controlled by NF-κB p65 and STAT1/2.
