SPS1 deficiency-triggered PGRP-LC and Toll expression controls innate immunity in Drosophila S2 cells

open access: yesBiology Open, 2022
Selenophosphate synthetase 1 (SPS1) is an essential gene for the cell growth and embryogenesis in Drosophila melanogaster. We have previously reported that SPS1 deficiency stimulates the expression of genes responsible for the innate immune system ...

Expression and Function of Toll Pathway Components in the Early Development of the Wasp Nasonia vitripennis

open access: yesJournal of Developmental Biology, 2022
The Toll signaling pathway is the main source of embryonic DV polarity in the fly Drosophila melanogaster. This pathway appears to have been co-opted from an ancestral innate immunity system within the insects and has been deployed in different ways ...

Gcm counteracts Toll-induced inflammation and impacts hemocyte number through cholinergic signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Hemocytes, the myeloid-like immune cells of Drosophila, fulfill a variety of functions that are not completely understood, ranging from phagocytosis to transduction of inflammatory signals.

The Daisho Peptides Mediate Drosophila Defense Against a Subset of Filamentous Fungi

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Fungal infections, widespread throughout the world, affect a broad range of life forms, including agriculturally relevant plants, humans, and insects. In defending against fungal infections, the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster employs the Toll pathway ...

Toll pathway modulates TNF-induced JNK-dependent cell death in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2015
Signalling networks that control the life or death of a cell are of central interest in modern biology. While the defined roles of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway in regulating cell death have been well-established, additional factors that ...

Enhanced antimicrobial peptide-induced activity in the mollusc Toll-2 family through evolution via tandem Toll/interleukin-1 receptor [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
Toll receptors play an important role in the innate immunity of invertebrates. All reported Tolls have only one Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domain at the C-terminal.

Impact of Road Network Charging System on Pricing for General Cargo Transportation

open access: yesPromet (Zagreb), 2012
The paper defines the problem of pricing in general cargo by impact of toll in the first section. Different usage of a vehicle in individual transportation causes that it is not possible to calculate the toll uniformly for every cargo by constant price ...
