A central signal that marshals host defense against many infections is the lymphocyte-derived cytokine interferon-gamma (IFNγ). The IFNγ receptor is expressed on most human cells and its activation leads to the expression of antimicrobial proteins that execute diverse cell-autonomous immune programs. One such immune program consists of the sequential detection, ubiquitylation, and destruction of intracellular pathogens.

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes are widely used as drinking water distribution pipes in rural areas of China. However, whether phthalate acid esters (PAEs) released from PVC pipes will affect tap water quality is still unknown. The influence of released PAEs on the water quality was analysed in this study, especially after ClO disinfection.

Shigella is the second leading cause of diarrheal disease-related death in young children in low and middle income countries. The mechanism of protection against shigella infection and disease in endemic areas is uncertain. While historically LPS-specific IgG titers have been associated with protection in endemic settings, emerging deeper immune approaches have recently elucidated a protective role for IpaB-specific antibody responses in a controlled human challenge model in North American volunteers.
