Summary of thesis

By using Dictyostelium discoideum as model organism, my work is trying to explore the functions and regulations of NADPH oxidases in host-pathogen interactions, and further make discovery on innate immunity evolution by comparing the roles of NADPH oxidases in Dictyostelium and human phagocytes.
