Calcium sequestration by fungal melanin inhibits calcium-calmodulin signalling ...
Kyrmizi, Irene; Ferreira, Helena; Carvalho, Agostinho; Figueroa, Julio Alberto Landero; Zarmpas, Pavlos; Cunha, Cristina; Akoumianaki, ToniaLC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) is a non-canonical autophagy pathway regulated by Rubicon, with an emerging role in immune homeostasis and antifungal host defence. Aspergillus cell wall melanin protects conidia (spores) from killing by phagocytes and promotes pathogenicity through blocking nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase-dependent activation of LAP. However, the signalling regulati...
Recognition of DHN-melanin by a C-type lectin receptor is required for immunity...
Stappers, Mark H.T.; Clark, Alexandra E.; Aimanianda, Vishukumar; Bidula, Stefan; Reid, Delyth M.; Asamaphan, Patawee; Hardison, Sarah E.Resistance to infection is critically dependent on the ability of pattern recognition receptors to recognize microbial invasion and induce protective immune responses. One such family of receptors are the C-type lectins, which are central to antifungal immunity. These receptors activate key effector mechanisms upon recognition of conserved fungal cell-wall carbohydrates. However, several other immunologically a...
