Mac‐1 triggers neutrophil DNA extracellular trap formation to Aspergillus fumigatus independently of PAD4 histone citrullination

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 2020
Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus) is an environmental fungus and a human pathogen. Neutrophils are critical effector cells during the fungal infections, and neutropenia is a risk factor for the development of pulmonary aspergillosis.

FleA Expression in Aspergillus fumigatus Is Recognized by Fucosylated Structures on Mucins and Macrophages to Prevent Lung Infection.

PLoS Pathogens, 2016
The immune mechanisms that recognize inhaled Aspergillus fumigatus conidia to promote their elimination from the lungs are incompletely understood.

Single dose pharmacodynamics of amphotericin B against Aspergillus species in an in vitro pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic model [PDF]

, 2013
Conventional MIC testing of amphotericin B results in narrow MIC ranges challenging the detection of resistant strains. In order to discern amphotericin B pharmacodynamics, the in vitro activity of amphotericin B was studied against Aspergillus isolates ...

Germination of Aspergillus fumigatus inside avian respiratory macrophages is associated with cytotoxicity [PDF]

, 2012
Although aspergillosis is one of the most common diseases in captive birds, the pathogenesis of avian aspergillosis is poorly known. We studied the role of avian respiratory macrophages as a first line of defense against avian aspergillosis.

Proteomic Analysis of Humoral Immune Components in Bronchoalveolar Lavage of Patients Infected or Colonized by Aspergillus fumigatus

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Humoral immune components have been individually studied in the context of interaction of host with Aspergillus fumigatus, a major airborne fungal pathogen. However, a global view of the multitude and complex nature of humoral immune components is needed

Comparison of multiple typing methods for Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]

, 2009
As part of studies on the spread of infections, risk factors and prevention, several typing methods were developed to investigate the epidemiology of Aspergillus fumigatus. In the present study, 52 clinical isolates of A.

rodletless mutants of Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1994
Conidia of Aspergillus fumigatus adhere in vitro to host proteins and cells via the outer cell wall layer. The rodA gene of A. fumigatus was cloned by homology with the rodA gene of Aspergillus nidulans, which is involved in the structure of the rodlets characteristic of the surface layer. The A.

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

Angewandte 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.
