Aspergillus epiglottitis [PDF]

open access: yesCancer, 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

Solid‐State NMR Reveals Reorganization of the Aspergillus fumigatus Cell Wall Due to a Host‐Defence Peptide

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Understanding the mode of action is critical to develop new antifungal drugs. Solid‐state NMR was used to study the reorganization of the Aspergillus fumigatus cell wall by a host‐defence peptide. We identified specific polysaccharides and amino acids that are affected by the peptide.

Aspergillus and the Lung

open access: yesSeminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine
AbstractThe filamentous fungus Aspergillus causes a wide spectrum of diseases in the human lung, with Aspergillus fumigatus being the most pathogenic and allergenic subspecies. The broad range of clinical syndromes that can develop from the presence of Aspergillus in the respiratory tract is determined by the interaction between host and pathogen.

Transient Stiffness Patterning in Hydrogels Driven by Dissipative Mechanochemical Coupling

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Force‐induced disulfide bond rupture in a polymer‐based hydrogel, coupled with chemical or electrochemical reoxidation, leads to the transient modulation of the hydrogel's stiffness properties. High spatiotemporal control is achieved by this dissipative process, enabling the development of out‐of‐equilibrium stiffness patterns and transient, dose ...
