The innate immune response provides the first line of defense against invading pathogens,
and immune disorders cause a variety of diseases. The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster …

The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a versatile model organism that has been used in biomedical
research for several decades to study a wide range of biological phenomena. There are …

Gut-associated bacteria produce metabolites that both have a local influence on the
intestinal tract and act at a distance on remote organs. In Drosophila, bacteria-derived …

Individual hosts within populations often show inter-individual variation in their susceptibility
to bacterial pathogen-related diseases. Utilizing Drosophila, we highlight that phenotypic …

Skeletal muscle in mammals can express and secrete immune-related molecules during
pathogen infection. Despite in fish is known that classical immune tissues participate in …

Retrotransposons are a class of transposable elements capable of self-replication and
insertion into new genomic locations. Across species, the mobilization of retrotransposons in …

This study evaluated the effectiveness of dietary Ziziphus mauritiana leaf powder (ZLP) to
control Aeromonas hydrophila infection in Nile tilapia and reduce damage to vital immune …

Research on the innate immunity has accelerated over the last decades. The main reason
for this has been the discovery of receptors recognizing danger molecules from pathogens …

IKK γ/NEMO is the regulatory subunit of the IκB kinase (IKK) complex, which regulates the
NF-κB signaling pathway. Within the IKK complex, IKK γ/NEMO is the non-catalytic subunit …

Skeletal muscle is the most abundant tissue in teleosts and is essential for movement and
metabolism. Recently, it has been described that skeletal muscle can express and secrete …
