AvrBsT acetylates Arabidopsis ACIP1, a protein that associates with microtubules and is required for immunity.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2014
Bacterial pathogens of plant and animals share a homologous group of virulence factors, referred to as the YopJ effector family, which are translocated by the type III secretion (T3S) system into host cells during infection.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Unlocking Nature's Defense: Plant Pattern Recognition Receptors as Guardians Against Pathogenic Threats

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions
Embedded in the plasma membrane of plant cells, receptor kinases (RKs) and receptor proteins (RPs) act as key sentinels, responsible for detecting potential pathogenic invaders.

A Novel Effector Gene SCRE2 Contributes to Full Virulence of Ustilaginoidea virens to Rice

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Ustilaginoidea virens, the causal agent of rice false smut (RFS), has become one of the most devastating rice pathogens worldwide. As a group of essential virulence factors, the effectors in the filamentous fungus might play central roles in the ...

Regulation and Functions of ROP GTPases in Plant–Microbe Interactions

open access: yesCells, 2020
Rho proteins of plants (ROPs) form a specific clade of Rho GTPases, which are involved in either plant immunity or susceptibility to diseases. They are intensively studied in grass host plants, in which ROPs are signaling hubs downstream of both cell ...

Modular mechanisms of immune priming and growth inhibition mediated by plant effector-triggered immunity [PDF]

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary Excessive activation of effector-triggered immunity (ETI) in plants inhibits plant growth and activates cell death. ETI mediated by intracellular Toll/Interleukin-1 receptor/Resistance protein (TIR) nucleotide-binding leucine-rich-repeat receptors (NLRs) involves two partially redundant signalling nodes in Arabidopsis, EDS1-PAD4-

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Host-MediatedS-Nitrosylation Disarms the Bacterial Effector HopAI1 to Reestablish Immunity

open access: yes, 2017
Pathogens deliver effectors into plant cells to suppress immunity-related signaling. However, effector recognition by the host elicits a hypersensitive response (HR) that overcomes the inhibition of host signaling networks, restoring disease resistance ...

Stimulator of interferon genes agonist augmented antitumor immunity of osimertinib in Egfr‐mutated lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining osimertinib with the STING agonist ADU‐S100 activates innate and adaptive immunity to overcome the non‐inflamed microenvironment of Egfr‐mutant lung cancer. This combination increases NK and CD8+ T‐cell infiltration, associated with activation of the STING‐IRF3 pathway and local immunogenic cell death.

Quantitative phosphoproteomic analysis reveals common regulatory mechanisms between effector- and PAMP-triggered immunity in plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Plant immunity consists of two arms: pathogen‐associated molecular pattern (PAMP)‐triggered immunity (PTI), induced by surface‐localized receptors, and effector‐triggered immunity (ETI), induced by intracellular receptors.
