This study shows that Candida spp. suppress neutrophil reactive nitrogen species to evade killing, and restoring RNS via Hif-1 stabilisation improves infection outcomes.

The paper tracks tnfb expression in zebrafish using reporter lines and scRNAseq, showing distinct kinetics and cell-type-specific expression compared to tnfa and il1b.

This study shows that oncogenic Ras in zebrafish skin triggers phenotypic plasticity in specific keratinocytes and promotes tumour-promoting neutrophils within 24 hours.

This study shows that telomerase reverse transcriptase (Tert) is essential for resistance to mycobacterial infection by supporting demand-driven hematopoiesis in zebrafish.

This study develops an in vitro assay to investigate how EPA decorations on E. faecalis affect phagocytosis, showing that decoration deletion increases phagocytosis and that lipoproteins are not involved.
