    IL-27 limits HSPC differentiation during infection and protects from stem cell exhaustion

    Daniel L Aldridge, Zachary Lanzar ... Christopher A Hunter
    Functional analyses showcase that in the absence of IL-27, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells are more likely to become monocytes during toxoplasmosis, making them less responsive after infection.

    The Shigella flexneri effector IpaH1.4 facilitates RNF213 degradation and protects cytosolic bacteria against interferon-induced ubiquitylation

    Luz Saavedra-Sanchez, Mary S Dickinson ... Jorn Coers
    The enteric bacterial Shigella secretes a virulence factor that degrades the pivotal human defense protein RNF213, thereby protecting cytosolic bacteria from interferon-driven ubiquitylation and associated innate immunity.
