Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Despite Severe Fusarium solani Infection in a Lung Transplanted Patient—A Case Report [PDF]
Solid-organ transplant patients require prolonged immunosuppression, increasing their risk of hematologic disorders. For these conditions, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a potential treatment, but it carries significant risk

Protein kinase D1 in myeloid lineage cells contributes to the accumulation of CXCR3+CCR6+ nonconventional Th1 cells in the lungs and potentiates hypersensitivity pneumonitis caused by S. rectivirgula [PDF]
IntroductionHypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an extrinsic allergic alveolitis characterized by inflammation of the interstitium, bronchioles, and alveoli of the lung that leads to granuloma formation.

Extrinsic allergic alveolitis [PDF]
Abstract: Extrinsic allergic alveolitis (also known as hypersensitivity pneumonitis) is caused by repeated inhalation of mainly organic antigens by sensitized subjects. This induces a hypersensitivity response in the distal bronchioles and alveoli and subjects may present clinically with a variety of symptoms.
