Abstract excerpt
Sensing and killing of intracellular bacterial pathogens are important features of cell-autonomous immunity. The cytokine gamma-interferon (IFNγ) enhances cell-autonomous immunity through upregulation of interferon stimulated genes such as guanylate binding proteins (GBPs). GBPs promote defense against Gram-negative cytosolic bacteria in part through the induction of an inflammatory cell death pathway called pyrop...
