Physiologic Alterations in the Murine Model after Nasal Fungal Antigenic Exposure

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 2008
ObjectiveTo determine whether a recently developed murine model of fungus‐induced sinonasal inflammation demonstrated alterations in ciliary activity and expression of inflammatory cytokines.Study DesignA prospective randomized controlled study of rhinosinusitis after fungal antigenic sensitization was performed with intraperitoneal aspergillus antigen

Extracellular vesicles as vehicles for the delivery of biologically active fungal molecules.

Current protein and peptide science, 2019
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membranous structures surrounded by a lipid bilayer required for the export of fungal proteins, lipids, toxins, nucleic acids, pigments, and polysaccharides.

Antigen-specific IgE in Sinus Mucosa of Allergic Fungal Rhinosinusitis Patients

American Journal of Rhinology, 2008
Background Local tissue production of antigen-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) has been shown in patients with allergic rhinitis and in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with nasal polyps. In allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS), specific IgE has been established in nasal lavage fluid and eosinophilic mucin.

Identification of indoor fungal antigens in assessment of hypersensitivity pneumonitis – an alternate approach

ILD/DPLD of known origin, 2019
Background: The diagnosis of hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) onset after fungal antigens inhalation at home can be challenging. Although an early identification of the inhaled antigen and its complete avoidance are recommended, current strategies for identifying the causal antigen are controversial.

Chemical Methods to Study The Structure of Fungal Polysaccharide Antigens

1988
Fungi are remarkable for the variety of polysaccharide structures they produce, such as α-D-mannans, β-D mannans, phosphomannans, galactans, phosphogalactans, chitin starchlike polymers, glycogen, pullulan, mycodextran, glucans having α.(1→3) linkages, β-(1→3) D- and β-(1→6) D-glucans.

[Allergy to fungal antigens].

Polski merkuriusz lekarski : organ Polskiego Towarzystwa Lekarskiego, 2003
Fungi from human environment or growing in human body may cause allergic reactions. The most common allergens are microfungi (moulds) belonging to imperfect fungi: Alternaria, Cladosporium and sack-like forms: Aspergillus, Penicillium and yeasts. Fungal antigens may stimulate production of specific IgE in atopic individuals what, as a rule, worsens the
