Diagnosis of fungal infections [PDF]
Mycoses, 1997 Summary. Fungal infections become more and more important due to their increasing incidence in immunocompromised patients. In these patients opportunistic fungi (Candida, Aspergillus, Cryptococcus) can cause life‐threatening infections. Diagnosis of fungal infections is difficult.

Journal of Fungi, 2022 Aspergillus fumigatus spores initiate more than 3,000,000 chronic and 300,000 invasive diseases annually, worldwide. Depending on the immune status of the host, inhalation of these spores can lead to a broad spectrum of disease, including invasive ...

Mediterranean Journal of Hematology and Infectious Diseases, 2011 Yeasts and moulds now rank amongst the 10 most frequently isolated pathogens in febrile patients with an impaired immune system. Fungi are mainly opportunistic pathogens that only invade the body if a severely weakened natural defense permits them to do so. Most factors facilitating an invasive fungal infection are unavoidable because they are directly

Multimodal Imaging Reveals Rapid Catecholamine Uptake and Release by Neutrophils
Advanced Science, EarlyView.We show that immune cells (neutrophils) synthesize, uptake, and store catecholamine neurotransmitters such as dopamine or adrenaline. They also release them in response to specific stimuli (serotonin), which we directly visualize using fluorescent nanosensors. We further demonstrate that catecholamines affect neutrophil functions (NETosis) and platelet

Engineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...
