Novel Intracellular Pathway Identified That Protects Against Viral and Bacterial Infection

Scientists defined a previously undescribed cellular mechanism for fighting pathogens—which they called “antibody-directed xenophagy”—through which cells tag for digestion antibody-coated bacteria and viruses that cross the cell membrane.
