Two major inositol transporters and their role in cryptococcal virulence.

Eukaryotic cell - 1 May 2011

Wang Yina, Liu Tong-bao, Delmas Guillaume, Park Steven, Perlin David, Xue Chaoyang

Abstract excerpt

Cryptococcus neoformans is an AIDS-associated human fungal pathogen and the most common cause of fungal meningitis, with a mortality rate over 40% in AIDS patients. Significant advances have been achieved in understanding its disease mechanisms. Yet the underlying mechanism of a high frequency of cryptococcal meningitis remains unclear. The existence of high inositol concentrations in brain and our earlier...
