Histoplasma virulence in vivo requires Sod3.
(A) Kinetics of sublethal lung infection by Histoplasma. Wild-type C57BL/6 mice were intranasally infected with approximately 1×104 SOD3(+) (OSU45), sod3Δ (OSU15), or sodΔ/SOD3 (OSU49) Histoplasma yeasts.

Mapping Histoplasma spp. in bats and cave ecosystems: evidence from midwestern Brazil
Caves serve as natural reservoirs for diverse microbial species due to their unique biotic and abiotic conditions. Histoplasma spp. is frequently associated with guano-enriched soil, low luminosity, and high humidity, particularly in Latin America, a ...

Histoplasma Virulence and Host Responses [PDF]
Histoplasma capsulatum is the most prevalent cause of fungal respiratory disease. The disease extent and outcomes are the result of the complex interaction between the pathogen and a host's immune system. The focus of our paper consists in presenting the

Definition of the Extracellular Proteome of Pathogenic-Phase Histoplasma capsulatum
The dimorphic fungal pathogen Histoplasma capsulatum causes respiratory and systemic disease. Within the mammalian host, pathogenic Histoplasma yeast infect, replicate within, and ultimately kill host phagocytes.
