A hyper-immunogenic and slow-growing fungal strain induces a murine granulomatous response to cryptococcal infection

2021-10-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Many successful pathogens cause latent infections, remaining dormant within the host for years but retaining the ability to reactivate to cause symptomatic disease. The human opportunistic pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans is a ubiquitous yeast that establishes latent pulmonary infections in immunocompetent individuals upon fungal inhalation from the environment. These latent infections are freq...
