Analysis of Pneumocystis Transcription Factor Evolution and Implications for Biology and Lifestyle

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Pneumocystis jirovecii kills hundreds of thousands of immunocompromised patients each year. Yet many aspects of the biology of this obligate pathogen remain obscure because it is not possible to culture the fungus in vitro independently of its host ...

Detection of Pneumocystis and Morphological Description of Fungal Distribution and Severity of Infection in Thirty-Six Mammal Species

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
Pneumocystis spp. are thought to adapt to the lungs of potentially all mammals. However, the full host range, fungal burden and severity of infection are unknown for many species.

CD4+ T-cell independent secondary immune responses to Pneumocystis pneumonia

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2016
Pneumocystis pneumonia is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among immunocompromised patients, especially in the context of HIV/AIDS. In the murine model of Pneumocystis pneumonia, CD4+ T-cells are required for clearance of a primary infection of ...

ANK1 and EPB41 Variants and The Risk of Steroid‐Induced Osteonecrosis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Steroid‐induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is a refractory skeletal disorder influenced by genetic and environmental factors. However, conclusive pathogenic genetic evidence remains elusive due to the limited exploration of rare damaging variants. In this study, we aimed to identify rare variants associated with SONFH.
