Poly(A) Polymerase 1 (PAPS1) influences organ size and pathogen response in Arabidopsis thaliana
… the reduced leaf size is due to an ectopic pathogen response. This constitutive immune response leads to increased resistance to the biotrophic oomycete Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis and reflects activation of the salicylic acid-independent signalling pathway downstream of ENHANCED DISEASE …

Peptidergic Signaling Controls the Dynamics of Sickness Behavior in Caenorhabditis Elegans
… between Caenorhabditis elegans and the pathogenic bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14. After a few hours of exposure to and infection by PA14, C. elegans develops a sickness-like behavior termed pathogen avoidance. Here I identify neuronal signals generated during the infection and …

Investigating the regulation of plant immunity by the N-degron pathway
… N-degron pathway as a regulator of plant defence responses (De Marchi et al., 2016; Gravot et al., 2016; Vicente et al., 2018), although the molecular mechanisms underpinning this activity are not fully understood. My project aims to elucidate the contribution of specific N-degron pathway …

Callus Culture as a Prospective Biosensor: Examining Fusarium graminearum Infection and Exploring the Use of RUBY as a Pathogen-Inducible Reporter
… challenges in identifying the presence of pathogens with enough lead time for effective mitigation, highlighting a need for novel early plant pathogen detection technologies. This thesis introduces an unconventional approach for rapid plant pathogen detection: transgenic callus culture. …

Transmission Competence of B. burgdorferi Infected Ixodes Ticks and Development of an OspC-Based Lyme Disease Vaccine
… of Lyme disease. Once we understand the vector-pathogen response, it also becomes important to determine the remedies for Lyme disease. Lyme disease can be treated with antibiotics if detected early, but the major obstacle lies in the early detection process. Therefore, it is important to …

Modeling of Cns Cancer With A Focus On The Immune Component
… the first responders to an injury to control pathogens and clear apoptotic cells from the site of an insult. Myeloid cells, through poorly understood mechanisms, undergo a switch after 3-5 days from attacking pathogens and clearing dead cells to secretion of growth cytokines to promote wound …
