Host-induced bacterial cell wall decomposition mediates pattern-triggered immunity in Arabidopsis
eLife, 2014 Peptidoglycans (PGNs) are immunogenic bacterial surface patterns that trigger immune activation in metazoans and plants. It is generally unknown how complex bacterial structures such as PGNs are perceived by plant pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and

The MAP4 kinase NbM4K3 regulates immune responses in Nicotiana benthamiana
Phytopathology ResearchThe mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase (M4K) family is evolutionarily conserved across plants and animals. In Arabidopsis, the protein kinase SIK1, an M4K member, is known to positively modulate reactive oxygen species (ROS) production

Enhancing crop innate immunity: new promising trends
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 Plants are constantly exposed to potentially pathogenic microbes present in their surrounding environment. Due to the activation of the pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) response that largely relies on accurate detection of pathogen- or microbe-associated

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.

Unseen Struggles: How Plant-Parasitic Nematodes Manipulate ROS Signaling in Host Plants
Molecular Plant-Microbe InteractionsReactive oxygen species (ROS) play a central role in plant defense, especially during interactions with plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs). These molecules act as early signals that activate immune responses and help reinforce plant cell walls to block ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Plant Immunity against Tobamoviruses
VirusesTobamoviruses are a group of plant viruses that pose a significant threat to agricultural crops worldwide. In this review, we focus on plant immunity against tobamoviruses, including pattern-triggered immunity (PTI), effector-triggered immunity (ETI ...

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.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...
