α‐1,3‐Glucan Is Required for Cell Wall Integrity and Full Virulence of Colletotrichum graminicola, but Not for Evasion of PAMP‐Triggered Immunity

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abbreviated Summary The role of the major fungal cell wall polymer α‐1,3‐glucan in plant infection is poorly understood. Deletion mutants of the maize anthracnose fungus Colletotrichum graminicola lacking all three α‐1,3‐glucan synthase genes differentiated severely distorted biotrophic hyphae in planta, and virulence was strongly reduced.

Blastomycosis—Some Progress but Still Much to Learn

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Blastomycosis, caused by Blastomyces spp., is an endemic mycosis capable of causing significant disease throughout the body. Higher rates of infection are seen in the Mississippi and Ohio River valleys, the Great Lakes region of the United States and ...

In the Midst of a Cytokine Storm—The Hemophagocytic Syndrome (Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis/Macrophage Activation Syndrome)

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS)/hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a life‐threatening hyperinflammatory syndrome characterized by immune dysregulation, cytokine overproduction, hemophagocytosis, cytopenias, and multiorgan dysfunction.

Exploring the environmental drivers of human blastomycosis cases in the Midwestern United States

Environmental Research: Health
Blastomycosis is a fungal infection endemic to the eastern United States (US) and Canada caused by the inhalation of the fungi Blastomyces spp. Currently, the environmental drivers of disease dynamics are poorly understood.

Mycobiome Sequencing and Analysis Applied to Fungal Community Profiling of the Lower Respiratory Tract During Fungal Pathogenesis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Invasive fungal infections are an increasingly important cause of human morbidity and mortality. We generated a next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based method designed to detect a wide range of fungi and applied it to analysis of the fungal microbiome ...
