We examined the role of interleukin (IL)-4 in host resistance against infection with
Cryptococcus neoformans. First, we examined the effects of a neutralizing anti-IL-4 …

The role of interleukin (IL)-4 in cryptococcal disease was studied in IL-4 knockout (IL-4KO)
and wild-type (WT) mice infected with Cryptococcus neoformans isolates that vary widely in …

We reported recently that interleukin (IL)‐12 and IL‐18 synergistically increased the
fungicidal activity of mouse peritoneal exudate cells against Cryptococcus neoformans by …

Abstract Using interleukin (IL)-18 deficient (IL-18−/−) mice, we examined the role of IL-18 in
the host resistance and Th1 response against infection with Cryptococcus neoformans …

We previously demonstrated that interleukin (IL)-12 protected mice against fatal pulmonary
infection with a highly virulent strain of Cryptococcus neoformans, which correlated well with …

We examined the role of IL‐12 in host resistance to Cryptococcus neoformans using a
murine model of pulmonary and disseminated infection. In this model, mice were infected …

Mice with a null deletion mutation in the gamma interferon (IFN-γ) receptor gene were used
to study the role of IFN-γ responsiveness during experimental pulmonary cryptococcosis …

In the present study. the role of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) in the host resistance against
Cryptococcus neoformans was examined using a murine model of pulmonary and …

A murine model was used to assess the role of cytokines in initiating protective T-cell-
mediated immunity in the lung. A pulmonary infection was initiated by intratracheal …

We examined the mechanisms involved in the development of lung lesions after infection
with Cryptococcus neoformans by comparing the histopathological findings and chemokine …
