FEBS Letters Biology of Danger and Defence Virtual Special IssueFEBS Letters is proud to launch a new series of Virtual Special Issues which will highlight a collection of outstanding articles recently published in the journal, focusing on a selection of topics that we hope will be of general interest to our readers. We encourage all FEBS Letters readers to take a look at the Virtual Special Issue on "Biology of Danger and Defence", our latest collection of some of the best articles published in FEBS Letters in the field of immunology and beyond. When an organism comes into contact with a noxious entity, it is normally capable of recognizing it as a potential source of danger. The danger stimulus is then translated into a network of signals, which ultimately switch on an ad hoc defence programme. Understanding the mechanisms underlying these pathways is a matter of utmost importance in biology and medicine. With this Virtual Special Issue we would like to highlight some of the most important contributions on the topic that were published in FEBS Letters in the last two years. The issue brings together not only articles in the field of immunology, but also includes essays in microbiology and plant biology. Many of the studies within this Special Issue focus on signalling pathways, shedding light onto the molecular mechanisms of danger and defence. We hope you will find this issue illuminating. |  |
