New preprint is out! 📣 @MaizelsLab We have done Spatial Transcriptomics on H. polygyrus infected guts 🪱🔬🧬 and found new insights into how the host defends itself against this very cool parasite! https://t.co/omR99H9FDK

Happy to share this preprint from @MaizelsLab decribing smartness of a murine parasite H. polygyrus. The helminth TGF-beta mimic TGM4 is a modular ligand that binds CD44, CD49d and TGF-beta receptors to preferentially target myeloid cells
biorxiv.org
The murine helminth parasite Heligmosomoides polygyrus expresses a family of modular proteins which, replicating the functional activity of the immunomodulatory cytokine TGF-β, have been named TGM...
