The paper shows that PD patients have altered CD4+ T cell responses to fasting/refeeding, leading to impaired neuro-immune signaling through a dysfunctional metabolic program in neurons.

This study shows that developmental priming with low copper exposure increases copper tolerance in stickleback fish through epigenetic and microbiome changes.

This paper shows that inhibiting ABHD11 reduces T cell cytokine production and alleviates autoimmunity by altering sterol metabolism and LXR activation.

This paper develops a genomic autogenous vaccine for poultry to reduce Campylobacter, showing reduced extra-intestinal survival genes and meat surface survival in vaccinated flocks.

The paper investigates how urbanization affects the spread of antimicrobial resistant Campylobacter jejuni in wild birds, finding a positive correlation between urban proximity and AMR gene prevalence.

The paper estimates molecular clock rates in Campylobacter using a birthday problem analogy to quantify lineage turnover and diversification in environmental bacteria.
