Cryptococcus Neoformans Infection and Immune Cell Regulation in Human Monocytes

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2015
Background/Aims: Cryptococcus neoformans infections are becoming increasingly prevalent and remain a life-threatening clinical issue in immune-compromised hosts. The microorganism evades a variety of endogenous anti-fungal mechanims of host immune cells.

Ultrastructure of Cryptococcus neoformans

Acta Dermato-Venereologica, 1982
The ultrastructure of C. neoformans was studied in two cases of cutaneous cryptococcosis. Extracellular and intracellular fungi were observed. Their capsules and clear zones were thick and distinct, but their cytoplasmic organelles were not obvious. In macrophages, a few stages of fungal degeneration could be observed.

A forkhead transcription factor contributes to the regulatory differences of pathogenicity in closely related fungal pathogens

mLife, 2022
Cryptococcus neoformans and its sister species Cryptococcus deuterogattii are important human fungal pathogens. Despite their phylogenetically close relationship, these two Cryptococcus pathogens are greatly different in their clinical characteristics ...
