Insights into dendritic cell maturation during infection with application of advanced imaging techniques

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Dendritic cells (DCs) are crucial for the initiation and regulation of adaptive immune responses. When encountering immune stimulus such as bacterial and viral infection, parasite invasion and dead cell debris, DCs capture antigens, mature, acquire ...

Insecticide resistance by a host-symbiont reciprocal detoxification

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Insecticide resistance is one of the most serious problems in contemporary agriculture and public health. Although recent studies revealed that insect gut symbionts contribute to resistance, the symbiont-mediated detoxification process remains unclear ...

Epitranscriptomic regulation of insecticide resistance

open access: yesScience Advances, 2021
A cytochrome P450 that confers insecticide resistance in whitefly is regulated by an epitranscriptomic mechanism. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent messenger RNA modification in eukaryotes and an important posttranscriptional regulator of ...

Past insecticide exposure reduces bee reproduction and population growth rate

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Global insect declines are profoundly concerning, especially for groups like bees that provide important services to humanity. However, we do not know the extent to which recognized drivers of decline, like pesticides, may produce carryover ...
