The paper shows lipid chlorination by MPO-derived hypochlorous acid enables NE release from granules, initiating NETosis.

This study shows sex differences in Drosophila intestinal metabolism affect infection outcomes, with males clearing pathogens via antioxidant pathways while females experience higher pathogen virulence.

This study shows SOD1 regulates ROS balance and antimicrobial activity in neutrophils by modulating O2- to H2O2 ratio and supporting MPO activity during NETosis and infection.

The paper identifies a specific marker for zebrafish eosinophils and develops new tools to study their biology and function in disease.

This study shows that MprF in Lactiplantibacillus plantarum helps it survive in Drosophila gut during inflammation by reducing immune response and maintaining microbial stability.

The paper identifies the spatial organisation and regulatory mechanisms of epithelial lineages at the gastroesophageal junction using multi-omics approaches and shows that Wnt microenvironments maintain homeostasis without lineage plasticity.

The paper identifies ALPK1 and TIFA as key components of an innate immune response triggered by H. pylori's T4SS, independent of CagA translocation.
