Host Soluble Mediators: Defying the Immunological Inertness of Aspergillus fumigatus Conidia

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2017
Aspergillus fumigatus produce airborne spores (conidia), which are inhaled in abundant quantity. In an immunocompromised population, the host immune system fails to clear the inhaled conidia, which then germinate and invade, leading to pulmonary ...

Role of Hydrophobins in Aspergillus fumigatus

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2017
Resistance of Aspergillus fumigatus conidia to desiccation and their capacity to reach the alveoli are partly due to the presence of a hydrophobic layer composed of a protein from the hydrophobin family, called RodA, which covers the conidial surface. In
