Immunotherapy of invasive fungal infection in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Despite the availability of new antifungal compounds, invasive fungal infection remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in children and adults undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Allogeneic HSCT recipients

Exploiting the behaviour of wild malaria vectors to achieve high infection with fungal biocontrol agents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background Control of mosquitoes that transmit malaria has been the mainstay in the fight against the disease, but alternative methods are required in view of emerging insecticide resistance.

Infection of Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes with entomopathogenic fungi: effect of host age and blood-feeding status. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Physiological characteristics of insects can influence their susceptibility to fungal infection of which age and nutritional status are among the most important.

Characterisation of Aspergillus fumigatus Endocytic Trafficking within Airway Epithelial Cells Using High-Resolution Automated Quantitative Confocal Microscopy

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2021
The precise characterization of the mechanisms modulating Aspergillus fumigatus survival within airway epithelial cells has been impaired by the lack of live-cell imaging technologies and user-friendly quantification approaches. Here we described the use

Gene induction during plant-microbe interactions : the role of chitinases during fungal infection and the investigation of mycorrhiza-induced genes in the model plant "M. truncatula" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In this thesis, the model legume Medicago truncatula was used for research on plant-microbe interactions. Unlike most other plants, legumes are able to form two distinct root symbioses. Together with soil-borne fungi of the Glomeromycota, they form the

Fungal biofilm resistance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Fungal biofilm infections have become increasingly recognised as a significant clinical problem. One of the major reasons behind this is the impact that these have upon treatment, as antifungal therapy often fails and surgical intervention is required ...

New nematicidal and antimicrobial secondary metabolites from a new species in the new genus, Pseudobambusicola thailandica

open access: yesMycoKeys, 2018
During the course of a study on the functional biodiversity of the mycobiota inhabiting rainforests in Thailand, a fungal strain was isolated from a plant sample and shown to represent an undescribed species, as inferred from a combination of ...

The negative cofactor 2 complex is a key regulator of drug resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Resistance to primary treatments of invasive aspergillosis is growing. Here, the authors generate a knockout library for 484 transcription factors in Aspergillus fumigatus, and show that loss of the NCT complex leads to cross-resistance to all primary ...

Fungal Infections

open access: yesBrain Pathology, 1997
Fungal infections have increased in frequency in the last decades because of the growing number of immunocompromised patients who survive longer periods of time than in the past, the widespread use of immunosuppressive drugs, a large aging population with increased numbers of malignancies, and the spread of AIDS.
