Aspergillus fumigatus is one of the most ubiquitous of the airborne saprophytic fungi.
Humans and animals constantly inhale numerous conidia of this fungus. The conidia are …

Heat-shock proteins (hsps) have been identified as molecular chaperones conserved
between microbes and man and grouped by their molecular mass and high degree of amino …

Invasive aspergillosis is a common infection in patients who are immunocompromised. The
diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis is difficult in the absence of confirmation by tissue biopsy …

A description of the pathophysiology of aspergillosis is followed by a review of
investigational considerations of animal models. Because a large body of invasive …

During the past decade, substantial progress has been made in the development of new
approaches and methods for the serological diagnosis of the mycoses. Clinically relevant …

Rabbits that had been infected intravenously with conidiospores of Aspergillus fumigatus
were used as sources of antibody for screening a λ phage cDNA expression library. The …

Invasive aspergillosis is seldomly described in systemic lupus erythematosus. We present
two cases of aspergillosis and review 21 cases reported between 1957 and 1994. The …

This book gives a comprehensive overview of human pathogenic fungi that offers a current …

With the completion of the Aspergillus fumigatus genome it is now possible to study protein
regulation on a global scale. One of the most suitable protein separation techniques is …

Aspergillus fumigatus is the species that most commonly causes the opportunistic infection
invasive aspergillosis (IA) in patients being treated for hematological malignancies. Little is …
