Abstract
Jigar V. Desai works in the field of immunology, studying the mucosal and systemic complement systems and their roles in regulating the immune response. In this mSphere of Influence article, he reflects on how the papers by the Kemper, Kulkarni, and Kasper laboratories made an impact on his ongoing work investigating the cell-intrinsic and extrinsic regulation of complement and studying its impacts on mucosal and systemic immunity.
Jigar V. Desai在免疫学领域工作,研究粘膜和全身补体系统及其在调节免疫反应中的作用。在这篇mSphere of Influence文章中,他回顾了Kemper、Kulkarni和Kasper实验室的论文如何影响了他正在进行的研究补体的细胞内在和外在调节以及研究其对粘膜和全身免疫的影响的工作。
期刊介绍:
mSphere™ is a multi-disciplinary open-access journal that will focus on rapid publication of fundamental contributions to our understanding of microbiology. Its scope will reflect the immense range of fields within the microbial sciences, creating new opportunities for researchers to share findings that are transforming our understanding of human health and disease, ecosystems, neuroscience, agriculture, energy production, climate change, evolution, biogeochemical cycling, and food and drug production. Submissions will be encouraged of all high-quality work that makes fundamental contributions to our understanding of microbiology. mSphere™ will provide streamlined decisions, while carrying on ASM''s tradition for rigorous peer review.
