While intestinal epithelial cells are known for secreting antimicrobial molecules, cell intrinsic defense mechanisms are less characterized. In this issue, Benjamin et al. (2013) demonstrate that MyD88 and autophagy within the intestinal epithelium detect invasive bacteria and prevent dissemination.
虽然肠上皮细胞以分泌抗菌分子而闻名,但细胞内在的防御机制却鲜为人知。在本期杂志中,Benjamin 等人(2013 年)证明了肠上皮细胞中的 MyD88 和自噬可以检测到入侵的细菌并防止其扩散。
