Polymorphisms in host immunity modulating genes and risk of invasive aspergillo...

Lupiañez, C. B.; Canet, L. M.; Carvalho, Agostinho Albérico Rodrigues de; Alcazar-Fuolie, L.; Springer, J.; Lacknerg, M.; Segura-Catena, J.; Comino, A.

Recent studies suggest that immune-modulating single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) influence the risk of developing cancer-related infections. Here, we evaluated whether 36 SNPs within 14 immune-related genes are associated with the risk of Invasive Aspergillosis (IA) and whether genotyping of these variants might improve disease risk prediction. We conducted a case-control association study of 781 immunocomp...


Management of fungal infections: diagnosis and human genetic susceptibility

Carvalho, Agostinho Albérico Rodrigues de

Tese de Doutoramento Ciências da Saúde - Ciências Biológicas e Biomédicas; Invasive fungal infections represent nowadays a major public health problem with associated high mortality rates. The lack of adequate diagnostic methods, together with the fact that many emerging fungal species are resistant to the currently available antifungal agents, contributes to the profound impact of these diseases in the health ...
