Fighting <i>Aspergillus</i> infection using biocontrol bacteria: A proof-of-concept of environmental interference in a translational setting
2025-03-27
Abstract excerpt
Aspergillus fungi are opportunistic pathogens that affect millions of people worldwide. Aspergilli produce organic acids to optimize the environmental pH and match the needs of their enzymatic machinery. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that this also occurs during infection. By producing oxalic acid (OA), Aspergillus would manipulate pH during lung infection and thus, interfering with this process could c...
