Adaptation to Macrophage killing by Talaromyces Marneffei
Talaromyces (Penicillium) marneffei est un important pathogène fongique opportuniste. Il provoque une infection disséminée chez les patients immunodéprimés, en particulier dans les pays d'Asie du Sud-Est. La pathogénicité de T. marneffei dépend de la capacité du champignon à survivre au processus de mise à mort et à se répliquer à l'intérieur du ...

Talaromyces marneffeilaccase modifies THP-1 macrophage responses [PDF]
Talaromyces (Penicillium) marneffei is an emerging opportunistic pathogen associated with HIV infection, particularly in Southeast Asia and southern China. The rapid uptake and killing of T. marneffei conidia by phagocytic cells along with the effective induction of an inflammatory response by the host is essential for disease control. T.
