Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Xialin Du"
- Xialin Du's research primarily focuses on the role of ubiquitin-related processes in regulating immune responses, particularly in macrophages and T cells during infections such as tuberculosis (Mtb) and other immune challenges.
- Recent findings highlight the significance of proteins like HERC5, UCHL1, and Viperin, which modulate pathological outcomes by affecting key signaling pathways and promoting either protective or detrimental immune responses.
- The studies also reveal novel mechanisms by which vitamins and interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) influence inflammatory processes and macrophage functionality, thus providing potential targets for therapeutic intervention in infectious diseases and autoimmunity.
