Requisite role for the dectin-1 beta-glucan receptor in pulmonary defense against Aspergillus fumigatus.
Immune suppression increases the incidence of invasive fungal infections, particularly those caused by the opportunistic mold Aspergillus fumigatus. Previous investigations revealed that members of the TLR family are not absolutely required for host defense against A. fumigatus in nonimmunosuppressed hosts, suggesting that other pattern recognition receptors are involved. We show in this study ...
متن کاملThe β-glucan receptor dectin-1 promotes lung immunopathology during fungal allergy via IL-22.
Sensitization to fungi, such as the mold Aspergillus fumigatus, is increasingly becoming linked with asthma severity. We have previously shown that lung responses generated via the β-glucan receptor Dectin-1 are required for lung defense during acute, invasive A. fumigatus infection. Unexpectedly, in an allergic model of chronic lung exposure to live A. fumigatus conidia, β-glucan recognition v...
متن کاملDistinct Roles for Dectin-1 and TLR4 in the Pathogenesis of Aspergillus fumigatus Keratitis
Aspergillus species are a major worldwide cause of corneal ulcers, resulting in visual impairment and blindness in immunocompetent individuals. To enhance our understanding of the pathogenesis of Aspergillus keratitis, we developed a murine model in which red fluorescent protein (RFP)-expressing A. fumigatus (Af293.1RFP) conidia are injected into the corneal stroma, and disease progression and ...
متن کاملIL-33 priming regulates multiple steps of the neutrophil-mediated anti-Candida albicans response by modulating TLR and dectin-1 signals.
IL-33 is known to play an important role in Th2 immunity. In this study, we investigated the effect of IL-33 pretreatment on anti-fungal response using an acute Candida albicans peritoneal infection model. IL-33 pretreatment induced a rapid fungal clearance and markedly reduced the C. albicans infection-associated mortality. The priming effect of IL-33 occurred during multiple steps of the neut...
متن کاملImpaired T Cell Responsiveness to Interleukin-6 in Hematological Patients with Invasive Aspergillosis
Invasive mold infections (IMI) are among the most devastating complications following chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), with high mortality rates. Yet, the molecular basis for human susceptibility to invasive aspergillosis (IA) and mucormycosis remain poorly understood. Herein, we aimed to characterize the immune profile of individuals with hematological malignanc...
