Inbred SJL mice recapitulate human resistance to Cryptococcus infection due to differential immune activation
6 Oct 2023
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Cryptococcosis remains a significant threat to human health. While the popular C57BL/6J mouse model of cryptococcosis has some advantages, there are some serious shortcomings that limit the ability of researchers to address the disease.
