Conidium Specific Polysaccharides in Aspergillus fumigatus
Journal of Fungi, 2023 Earlier studies have shown that the outer layers of the conidial and mycelial cell walls of Aspergillus fumigatus are different. In this work, we analyzed the polysaccharidome of the resting conidial cell wall and observed major differences within the ...

Aspergillus Genomes and the Aspergillus Cloud [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2008 Aspergillus Genomes is a public resource for viewing annotated genes predicted by various Aspergillus sequencing projects. It has arisen from the union of two significant resources: the Aspergillus/Aspergillosis website and the Central Aspergillus Data REpository (CADRE).

Aspergillus epiglottitis [PDF]
Cancer, 1983 A 21-year-old woman with acute lymphocytic leukemia developed clinical and radiographic signs of epiglottitis. Premortem and postmortem histologic studies showed invasive aspergillosis; Aspergillus flavus was grown in culture. The necrotizing nature of this infection is explained by the predilection of Aspergillus sp. for invasion of blood vessels. The

Aspergillus fumigatus, One Uninucleate Species with Disparate Offspring
Journal of Fungi, 2021 Establishment of a fungal infection due to Aspergillus fumigatus relies on the efficient germination of the airborne conidia once they penetrate the respiratory tract. However, the features of conidial germination have been poorly explored and understood

Factors associated with invasive lung aspergillosis and the significance of positive aspergillus culture after liver transplantation [PDF]
, 1992 From January 1981 to December 1990, 2180 patients underwent orthotopic liver transplantation at the University of Pittsburgh. Thirty-two patients (1.5%) were identified with invasive aspergillosis (29 lung, 2 intraabdominal, 1 meningitis). Of 29 patients
