Bitter taste signaling in tracheal epithelial brush cells elicits innate immune responses to bacterial infection
Constant exposure of the airways to inhaled pathogens requires efficient early immune responses protecting against infections. How bacteria on the epithelial surface are detected and first-line protective mechanisms are initiated are not well understood. We have recently shown that tracheal brush ce...
