Nature CommunicationsInflammasome activation results in the cleavage of gasdermin D (GSDMD) by pro-inflammatory caspases. The N-terminal domains (GSDMDNT) oligomerize and assemble pores penetrating the target membrane.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Gasdermin E deficiency limits inflammation and lung damage during influenza virus infection
Cell Death and DiseaseSevere influenza A virus (IAV) infections are associated with hyperinflammation and significant lung damage. Gasdermin E (GSDME) mediates pyroptosis, a lytic and inflammatory type of cell death.

RIG-I-like receptors direct inflammatory macrophage polarization against West Nile virus infection
Nature Communications, 2019 RIG-I- like receptors (RLRs) play an important role in immune defense against West Nile virus (WNV). Here, using a systems biology approach, the authors show that macrophage polarization to a proinflammatory M1 phenotype via RIG-I and MDA5 signaling is ...

Key Roles of MiT Transcription Factors in Innate Immunity and Inflammation
, 2020 Microphthalmia/TFE (MiT) transcription factors (TFs), such as transcription factor EB (TFEB) and transcription factor E3 (TFE3), are emerging as key regulators of innate immunity and inflammation.

Adaptive immunity in invertebrates: a straw house without a mechanistic foundation [PDF]
, 2007 Recently claims have been made for radical new insights in the field of invertebrate immunology that involve memory, specificity and/or maternal transfer of immunocompetence.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.
