Mechanisms of antimicrobial defense highlighted in Host Pathogens 2019.
Four cell types are pictured: phagocyte (purple), neutrophil (pink), neuron, and T cell (red). Each number refers to a distinct pathway of antibacterial defense highlighted in the issue, as follows: 1: Host Inflammasome and bacterial evasion 2: NLRP1 Inflammasome 3: Metabolic reprogramming as a cellular defense mechanism 4: Hif1α in cellular resistance to intracellular pathogens 5: Reactive Oxygen 6: Reactive Nitrogen Intermediates 7: Metals as antimicrobial effectors 8: LC3 associated phagocytosis 9: IFN regulated GTPases 10: Apoptosis as cellular defense mechanism 11: Neutrophil effector mechanisms 12: Perforin-Granzyme mediated killing of intracellular pathogens 13:. Neurons in immune defense
