A humoral stress response protects <i>Drosophila</i> tissues from antimicrobial peptides

2023-07-24

Abstract excerpt

The immune response against an invading pathogen is generally associated with collateral tissue damage caused by the immune system itself. Consequently, several resilience mechanisms have evolved to attenuate the negative impacts of immune effectors. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small, cationic peptides that contribute to innate defenses by targeting negatively charged membranes of microbes 1, 2 . While bein...
