Biological Boundary Conditions Regulate the Internalization of <i>Aspergillus Fumigatus</i> Conidia by Alveolar Cells

2024-11-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> The lung environment is defined by unique biological boundary conditions, including complex alveolar geometry, extracellular matrix composition and mechanical forces generated during respiration. These factors were shown to regulate alveolar permeability, surfactant secretion, cell contractility and apoptosis, but their role in fungal infections remains unknown. Aspergillus fumigatus is a c...
