Genetic susceptibility to aspergillosis in allogeneic stem-cell transplantation [PDF]

, 2011
Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a major threat to positive outcomes for allogeneic stem-cell transplantation (allo-SCT) patients. Despite presenting similar degrees of immunosuppression, not all individuals at-risk ultimately develop infection. Therefore,

Immune Exhaustion in Chronic Infection and Cancer: Signaling Pathways and Therapeutic Interventions

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Immune exhaustion is a well‐established hallmark of both cancer and chronic infection. This review proposes a novel “infection–exhaustion–tumor axis” framework, wherein chronic pathogens (e.g., oncogenic viruses) evade immune surveillance by hijacking inflammatory signaling to drive immune cell exhaustion, thereby creating immunosuppressive niches ...

Acute respiratory failure in patients with hematological malignancies : outcomes according to initial ventilation strategy : a Groupe de recherche respiratoire en réanimation onco-hématologique (Grrr-OH) study [PDF]

, 2015
Background: In patients with hematological malignancies and acute respiratory failure (ARF), noninvasive ventilation was associated with a decreased mortality in older studies. However, mortality of intubated patients decreased in the last years. In this

Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 499-515, March 2026.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

Studies on the release of neutrophil extracellular traps and IFN-γ as part of the innate immune response to Aspergillus fumigatus and on the fungal stress response via the hybrid sensor kinase TcsC [PDF]

, 2012
Aspergillus fumigatus is a saprophytic mold that naturally inhabits the soil. Asexual reproduction yields hardy conidia that circulate in the air and are inhaled daily by humans.

Immunogenetic profiling to predict risk of invasive fungal diseases : where are we now? [PDF]

, 2011
Invasive fungal diseases remain nowadays life-threatening conditions affecting multiple clinical settings. The onset of these diseases is dependent on numerous factors, of which the "immunocompromised" phenotype of the patients is the more often ...

Cryptococcus neoformans chitin synthase 3 plays a critical role in dampening host inflammatory responses [PDF]

, 2020
Cryptococcus neoformans is the most common disseminated fungal pathogen in AIDS patients, resulting in ∼200,000 deaths each year. There is a pressing need for new treatments for this infection, as current antifungal therapy is hampered by toxicity and/or
