Integrin beta 1 and mannose receptor 2 are involved in the antifungal activity of bronchial epithelial cells through <i>Aspergillus fumigatus</i> lectin FleA interactions
2026-02-27
Abstract excerpt
Aspergillus fumigatus is a world-wide saprophyte filamentous fungus which released conidia, its infectious morphotype, in the atmosphere. These conidia are inhaled daily by humans and can colonize the respiratory tract, where they may develop into hyphae, the invasive morphotype. We previously showed that bronchial epithelial cells (BECs) restrict A. fumigatus virulence by inhibiting conidial germination and fila...
