Intestinal NF-κB and STAT signalling is important for uptake and clearance in a <i>Drosophila-Herpetomonas</i> interaction model

2018-06-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Dipteran insects transmit diseases to humans, often in the form of trypanosomatid parasites. To accelerate research in more difficult contexts of dipteran-parasite relationships, we studied the interaction of the model dipteran Drosophila melanogaster and its natural trypanosomatid Herpetomonas muscarum . Parasite infection reduced fecundity but not lifespan in NF-κB/Relish-deficient flies. Ge...
