Screening the fruitfly immune system
2002
Dionne, Marc S | Schneider, David S
The anti-microbial defense system of Drosophila shows functional similarities with the vertebrate innate immune system. Two recent gene-expression profiling studies of fruitflies challenged with infectious agents have identified key molecular players in the fruitfly's response to bacterial and fungal infection, as well as a large number of immune-regulated genes with unknown immunological function.
