The Drosophila PDGF/VEGF signaling pathway regulates host immunometabolism in response to parasitoid infection

Ashley L. Waring, Abraham Y. Kpirikai, Jun Yang…·Nathan T. Mortimer

This study identifies the PDGF/VEGF signaling pathway as a key driver of immunometabolism in Drosophila during parasitoid wasp infection, revealing a trade-off between immune function and development.
