Abstract:
:Drosophila has recently become a powerful model organism for studies of innate immunity. The cellular elements of innate immunity in Drosophila, the hemocytes, have been characterized by morphological criteria, molecular markers, and cell-type-specific immunological markers. Here we suggest that an MiET1 GFP-reporter element insertion in the untranslated region of a gene (l1-atilla) - expressed in a subset of hemocytes, the lamellocytes - allows in vivo investigations of lamellocyte differentiation and facilitates genetic screens.

信件abstract::Interleukin (IL)-17A is a cytokine that plays an important role in infectious, autoimmune, and inflammatory diseases. In this study, we found that TCRγδ(+)CD4(-)CD8(-) T cells, but not TCRαβ(+)CD4(+) T cells, are the primary producers of IL-17A in the genital tract of female mice in the steady-state condition.
