    Tracheal terminal cells of Drosophila are immune privileged to maintain their Foxo-dependent structural plasticity

    Judith Bossen, Larissa Fritz ... Thomas Roeder
    Terminal tracheal cells in Drosophila evade innate immune activation, revealing a fundamental trade-off in which suppression of canonical immune signaling preserves Foxo-dependent plasticity and sustains respiratory function.
