Think you know how granzymes work? Think again! GzmA protects against intestinal Salmonella infection, but GzmB helps Salmonella, and perforin has no role at all. Read about this complex story of the battle between host and pathogen here Tweetorial below

😊 thank you for saying this! We were struggling to find LRRK2 expression in paneth cells for a while, but then at a meeting I heard two other labs were also going through the same struggles. This encouraged me to publish this @NatImmunol to save others effort and resources
Science is self correcting. That's the way it should be. This finding is important for understanding the role of LRRK2 in IBD. Kudos to @MahimaSwamy for working hard to publish this. I think most of us would have put contradicting data in the drawer forever.
