Silica Nanoparticles as Multifunctional Platforms for Vaccine Delivery and Immune Modulation in Infectious Diseases

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Overview of the use of silica nanoparticles in vaccines against pathogens. Different kinds of vaccines against infectious diseases are currently using solid or mesoporous silica nanoparticles in their formulation. Silica microparticles and nanoparticles (SiNPs) have been studied as vehicles for vaccines.

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.

Infection of the pleura by Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]

Thorax, 1970
Pleural aspergillosis occurs mostly in established cases of pleural empyema with a broncho-pleural fistula. Ten such patients are reported here: in all, Aspergillus fumigatus infection was related to tuberculosis. In three cases with an active, sputum-positive tuberculous process the pleural empyema was a complication of spontaneous pneumothorax in two,

Exploring Bioactive Metabolites From Fusarium falciforme and Aspergillus terreus Isolated From Protease‐Rich Fruits: Antifungal, Antitrypanosomal, and Enzymatic Inhibitory Activities

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
Metabolites from fungi isolated from protease rich‐fruits displayed antifungal, antitrypanosomal and enzymatic inhibitory activities. ABSTRACT Fungal secondary metabolites display remarkable chemical diversity and biological potential, with applications in agriculture and pharmaceuticals. This study isolated and characterized bioactive metabolites from

Aspergillus fumigatus and Related Species [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2014
The genus Aspergillus contains etiologic agents of aspergillosis. The clinical manifestations of the disease range from allergic reaction to invasive pulmonary infection. Among the pathogenic aspergilli, Aspergillus fumigatus is most ubiquitous in the environment and is the major cause of the disease, followed by Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger ...

Fungal Biodiversity From the Atlantic Forest With Bioactive Metabolites Against Cutaneous Leishmaniasis

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biodiversity offers a rich source of bioactive compounds for drug discovery. We isolated Aspergillus fumigatus from compost in the Atlantic Forest and found its extract active against Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis. Two crude extracts, I06 and I75, were selected for further study.

Macrophages inhibit Aspergillus fumigatus germination and neutrophil-mediated fungal killing

PLoS Pathogens, 2018
In immunocompromised individuals, Aspergillus fumigatus causes invasive fungal disease that is often difficult to treat. Exactly how immune mechanisms control A. fumigatus in immunocompetent individuals remains unclear. Here, we use transparent zebrafish

Composition, Chemical Variability, and Anti‐inflammatory Activity of the Berry Essential Oil of Juniperus phoenicea L. var. Turbinata From Algeria

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The chemical composition of 66 oil samples isolated from the berries of individual trees of Juniperus phoenicea var. turbinata, collected in six locations from Algeria, was investigated by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection, gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry, and 13C‐nuclear magnetic resonance.
