Tissue morphogenesis requires the spatial control over actomyosin contractility to drive cell shape changes. How developmental patterning information controls cell mechanics is poorly understood. In the Drosophila embryo ectoderm, Myosin-II is enriched at the interface between antero-posterior neigh...

Psoriasis is a complex inflammatory disease resulting from the activation of T helper (Th) 1 and Th17 cells. Recent evidence suggests that abnormal activation of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) 7, 8 and 9 contributes to the initiation and maintenance of psoriasis. We have evaluated the effects of TLR a...

Toll mediates a robust and effective innate immune response across vertebrates and invertebrates. In Drosophila melanogaster, activation of Toll by systemic infection drives the accumulation of a rich repertoire of immune effectors in hemolymph, including the recently characterized Bomanins as well ...

Endogenous molecules generated upon pathogen invasion or tissue damage serve as danger signals that activate host defence, however their precise immunological role remains unclear. Tenascin-C is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that is specifically induced upon injury and infection. We have show...

Background & Aims: New therapies for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) are urgently needed since current treatments rarely lead to cure. We evaluated whether the oral small molecule toll-like receptor (TLR7) agonist GS-9620 could induce durable anti-viral efficacy in woodchucks chronically infected with woo...

Expression of enzymatically inactive caspase-8, or deletion of caspase-8 from basal epidermal keratinocytes, triggers chronic skin inflammation in mice. Unlike similar inflammation resulting from arrest of NF-kB activation in the epidermal cells, the effect induced by caspase-8 deficiency did not de...
