Single-cell and Spatial Transcriptomics Illuminate Bat Immunity and Barrier Tissue Evolution
18 Jan 2025
Abstract excerpt
Bats have adapted to pathogens through diverse mechanisms, including increased resistance-rapid pathogen elimination, and tolerance-limiting tissue damage following infection. In the Egyptian fruit bat (an important model in comparative immunology), several mechanisms conferring disease tolerance were discovered, but mechanisms underpinning resistance remain poorly understood. Previous studies on other species...
