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 ...

Dominantly inherited expanded repeat neurodegenerative diseases are typically caused by the expansion of existing variable copy number tandem repeat sequences in otherwise unrelated genes. Repeats located in translated regions encode polyglutamine that is thought to be the toxic agent, however in se...

Toll pathway is a key mediator of antiplasmodial immunity and its mechanism of action is dependent on hemocytes (mosquito white blood cells). Anopheles gambiae were injected with dsRNA for Cactus, an inhibitor of the Toll pathway. Cactus silencing over activates the Toll pathway. The goal of this ex...

Although host-parasitoid interactions are becoming well characterized at the organismal and cellular levels, much remains to be understood of the molecular bases for the host immune response and the parasitoids’ ability to defeat this immune response. Leptopilina boulardi and L. heterotoma, two c...
