Over the last decades, there was increasing evidence for the presence of innate immune
memory in living organisms. In this review, we compare the innate immune memory of various …

The fresh water snail Biomphalaria glabrata is one of the vectors of the trematode pathogen
Schistosoma mansoni, which is one of the agents responsible of human schistosomiasis. In …

Metastasis constitutes the primary cause of cancer-related deaths, with the lung being a
commonly affected organ. We found that activation of lung-resident group 2 innate lymphoid …

Discoveries made over the past ten years have provided evidence that invertebrate antiparasitic
responses may be primed in a sustainable manner, leading to the failure of a secondary …

A possible malaria control approach involves the dissemination in mosquitoes of inherited
symbiotic microbes to block Plasmodium transmission. However, in the Anopheles gambiae …

It is unclear how genetic aberrations impact the state of nascent tumour cells and their
microenvironment. BRCA1 driven triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) has been shown to arise …

Detection of pathogens by all living organisms is the primary step needed to implement a
coherent and efficient immune response. This implies a mediation by different soluble and/or …

Insect thioester-containing protein (iTEP) is the most recently defined group among the
thioester-containing protein (TEP) superfamily. TEPs are key components of the immune system, …

In recent decades, numerous studies have sought to better understand the mechanisms
underlying the compatibility between Biomphalaria glabrata and Schistosoma mansoni. The …

Invertebrate immune response may be primed by a current infection in a sustained manner,
leading to the failure of a secondary infection with the same pathogen. The present study …
