Peptidoglycan-dependent NF-κB activation in a small subset of brain octopaminergic neurons controls female oviposition

Peptidoglycan-dependent NF-κB activation in a small subset of brain octopaminergic neurons controls female oviposition

When facing microbes, animals engage in behaviors that lower the impact of the infection. We previously demonstrated that internal sensing of bacterial peptidoglycan reduces Drosophila female oviposition via NF-κB pathway activation in some neurons (Kurz et al., 2017). Although we showed that the ne...
