Our department spent the weekend in Šumava for the annual PhD retreat — sharing research, ideas, and great company. Between sessions we hiked, enjoyed good food, and soaked in the autumn scenery. Thanks to everyone who made it such a great mix of work and fun! @fscusb.bsky.social

🪰 How do insects fight infections and remember them?
A new Review Article presents an overview of insect immune memory, from antiviral defences to transgenerational immunity, and the unanswered questions.

Current insights into insect immune memory
Insects possess a remarkable ability to develop innate immune memory, and the mechanisms underlying this process are becoming a central topic in innate immunity research.

In their eLife (@elife.bsky.social) review, Adam Bajgar and Gabriela Krejcova examine how immune memory works against viruses and bacteria. They spotlight open questions and propose Drosophila as a model to study innate immune memory and insect vaccination.

Immune cells don’t just fight infection—they manage the body’s energy too. A Trends in Biochemical Sciences spotlight on Nedbalova et al. shows they release adenosine, signaling other tissues to dial down energy use.

Adenozin - známá molekula, na kterou se molekulární biologové z Jihočeské univerzity podívali jinou optikou. Výsledek jejich výzkumu zaujal prestižní časopis Science. Na první pohled složitý mechanismus, na druhý už nesmírně zajímavý a univerzální proces, který se děje v každém organismu.
Jihočeská univerzita v Českých Budějovicích - Nový pohled na známou molekulu: pomocí adenozinu si buňka říká o víc energie. Podle jihočeských vědců to zásadně souvisí s tím, jak pracuje naše imunita
