Multicentric Case Series and Literature Review of Coccidioidal Otomastoiditis

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2023
Coccidioidomycosis involving the ear, mastoid bone, or both is uncommon. We describe 5 new cases from the United States and review 4 cases reported in the literature of otomycosis and mastoiditis caused by Coccidioides.

Fungal Infections in Pediatric Lung Transplant Recipients: Colonization and Invasive Disease [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, 2009
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the epidemiology and investigate the impact of colonization and pulmonary fungal infections (PFIs).In this investigation we performed a retrospective analysis of 55 pediatric lung transplant recipients from 2002 to 2007 at a single institution.

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

New Perspectives in the Diagnosis and Management of Allergic Fungal Airway Disease

open access: yesJournal of Asthma and Allergy, 2021
Allergy to airway-colonising, thermotolerant, filamentous fungi represents a distinct eosinophilic endotype of often severe lung disease. This endotype, which particularly affects adult asthma, but also complicates other airway diseases and sometimes ...

Lipid Nanoparticle Co‐Delivery of mRNA and a Small Molecule Drug for Oral Cancer Chemoimmunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Co‐encapsulation of p53 mRNA and the small molecule ciclopirox within a lipid nanoparticle yields an all‐in‐one chemoimmunotherapy for oral squamous cell carcinoma. The platform engages caspase‐driven apoptosis in cancer cells while repolarizing tumor‐associated macrophages, achieving tumor reduction in both p53‐susceptible and p53‐resistant models and

Mycotic Infections Acquired outside Areas of Known Endemicity, United States

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
In the United States, endemic mycoses—blastomycosis, coccidioidomycosis, and histoplasmosis—pose considerable clinical and public health challenges. Although the causative fungi typically exist within broadly defined geographic areas or ecologic niches ...

CXCR4+granulocytes reflect fungal cystic fibrosis lung disease [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2015
Cystic fibrosis airways are frequently colonised with fungi. However, the interaction of these fungi with immune cells and the clinical relevance in cystic fibrosis lung disease are incompletely understood.We characterised granulocytes in airway fluids and peripheral blood from cystic fibrosis patients with and without fungal colonisation, non-cystic ...
