Phagocyte responses towards Aspergillus fumigatus

International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2011
The saprophytic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus is a mold which is ubiquitously present in the environment. It produces large numbers of spores, called conidia that we constantly inhale with the breathing air. Healthy individuals normally do not suffer from true fungal infections with this pathogen.

Effectiveness and Predictors of House Dust Mite Subcutaneous Immunotherapy in Polysensitised Patients With Allergic Rhinitis: A Multicentre Retrospective Study

Clinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
Single‐allergen dust mite subcutaneous immunotherapy achieved 68.8% perennial symptom response rate in polysensitised allergic rhinitis patients. High mould and dust mite sIgE levels predicted poor allergen immunotherapy response, which indicated allergen‐specific sIgE levels may help guide personalised allergen immunotherapy decisions.

AtrR Is an Essential Determinant of Azole Resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus

mBio, 2019
Aspergillus fumigatus is the major filamentous fungal pathogen in humans. Infections associated with A. fumigatus are often treated with azole drugs, but resistance to these antifungal agents is increasing.

Characterization of Aspergillus fumigatus Extracellular Vesicles and Their Effects on Macrophages and Neutrophils Functions

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) has been considered an alternative process for intercellular communication. EVs release by filamentous fungi and the role of vesicular secretion during fungus-host cells interaction remain unknown.

Improving the use of expert opinion in disease risk analysis for conservation translocations

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation translocations are subject to considerable uncertainty and risk, of which disease is one of the most recognized. To address disease risks, several protocols for qualitative disease risk analysis (qDRA) exist and are used for responsible conservation translocation planning.

Aspergillus fumigatus spondylitis in an immunocompetent patient with annular high signal around the intervertebral disks: a case report and literature review

Frontiers in Medicine
Aspergillus fumigatus spondylitis is a rare fungal infection, primarily occurring in immunocompromised patients, although cases in immunocompetent individuals have also been reported.

Galactomannoproteins of Aspergillus fumigatus

Eukaryotic Cell, 2005
ABSTRACT Galactofuranose-containing molecules have been repeatedly shown to be important antigens among human fungal pathogens, including Aspergillus fumigatus . Immunogenic galactofuran determinants have been poorly characterized chemically, however.

The Volatome of Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]

Eukaryotic Cell, 2014
ABSTRACT Early detection of invasive aspergillosis is absolutely required for efficient therapy of this fungal infection. The identification of fungal volatiles in patient breath can be an alternative for the detection of Aspergillus fumigatus that still remains problematic.

Digital Surveillance After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Guides Therapeutic Interventions to Reduce Non‐Relapse Mortality

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) offers curative potential for many hematological malignancies; however, outcomes may be adversely affected by infections and transplant‐associated complications, contributing to non‐relapse mortality (NRM).
