Interactions between human granulocytes and Blastomyces dermatitidis [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1979
We studied interactions in vitro between human granulocytes and the yeast-like form of Blastomyces dermatitidis, because granulocytes are prominent in the host response to systemic blastomycosis. In Boyden chamber assays, broth culture filtrates of B. dermatitidis contained levels of granulocyte chemotactic activity that were significantly higher than ...
