Experimental Models of Cryptococcosis [PDF]
Cryptococcosis is a life-threatening fungal disease that infects around one million people each year. Establishment and progression of disease involves a complex interplay between the fungus and a diverse range of host cell types.

The impact of the Fungus-Host-Microbiota interplay upon Candida albicans infections: current knowledge and new perspectives [PDF]
Candida albicans is a major fungal pathogen of humans. It exists as a commensal in the oral cavity, gut or genital tract of most individuals, constrained by the local microbiota, epithelial barriers and immune defences.

Highlighting the interplay of microRNAs from Leishmania parasites and infected-host cells [PDF]
Leishmania parasites, the causative agents of leishmaniasis, are protozoan parasites with the ability to modify the signaling pathway and cell responses of their infected host cells.

Deciphering interplay between Salmonella invasion effectors. [PDF]
Bacterial pathogens have evolved a specialized type III secretion system (T3SS) to translocate virulence effector proteins directly into eukaryotic target cells.

Variation in resistance to multiple pathogen species:anther-smuts of Silene uniflora [PDF]
The occurrence of multiple pathogen species on a shared host species is unexpected when they exploit the same micro-niche within the host. One explanation for such observations is the evolution of pathogen-specific resistances that segregate the host ...

Interplay of host–pathogen microvesicles and their role in infectious disease [PDF]
The release of extracellular vesicles, whether MVs (microvesicles) or exosomes, from host cells or intracellular pathogens is likely to play a significant role in the infection process.

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis interferes on dendritic cells maturation by inhibiting PGE2 production. [PDF]
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic mycosis, endemic in most Latin American countries, especially in Brazil, whose etiologic agent is the thermodimorphic fungus of the genus Paracoccidioides, comprising cryptic species of Paracoccidioides ...

Recurrent Vulvovaginal Candidiasis: An Immunological Perspective
Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is a widespread vaginal infection primarily caused by Candida albicans. VVC affects up to 75% of women of childbearing age once in their life, and up to 9% of women in different populations experience more than three ...

Triggering and modulation of the host-parasite interplay by Echinococcus multilocularis: a review [PDF]
As more facts emerge regarding the ways in which E. multilocularis-derived molecules trigger the host immune response and modulate the host-parasite interplay, it becomes possible to envisage how the parasite can survive and proliferate in its ...
