Immunomodulatory Effects of Voriconazole on Monocytes Challenged withAspergillus fumigatus: Differential Role of Toll-Like Receptors
15 Jul 2008
Abstract excerpt
Voriconazole (VRC) has activity against Aspergillus fumigatus, the most frequent cause of invasive aspergillosis in immunocompromised patients. The combination of VRC and A. fumigatus hyphae induced a more pronounced profile of expression of genes encoding inflammatory molecules in human monocytes than Aspergillus alone did. Herein, we provide further evidence of the potential mechanism underlying this...
