An infection caused by eukaryotic heterotrophic organisms that live as saprobes or parasites, including mushrooms, yeasts, smuts, molds, etc. They reproduce either sexually or asexually, and have life cycles that range from simple to complex. Filamentous fungi refer to those that grow as multicellular colonies (mushrooms and molds).

Candida infected Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells Homo sapiens |   RNA Expression Using oligonucleotide microarray analysis, we identified 56 genes that were transcriptionally up-regulated and 69 that were suppressed upon exposure of endothelial cells to C. albicans. Among the regulated genes those attributed to the categories ‘chemotaxis’, ‘signaling’, and ‘transcription and tra… Authors: Müller V, Viemann D, Schmidt M et al.

Human dendritic cells after infection with A. fumigatus Homo sapiens |   RNA Expression DCs are localized under the mucosa of the lungs and the gastrointestinal tract, and therefore come into close contact with A. fumigatus germ tubes during early steps of infection as soon as fungi become invasive. For a more detailed insight into differentially regulated genes, whole genome microarra… Authors: Mezger Markus, Kneitz Susanne, Löffler Jürgen Organization: Universitätsklinikum Würzburg Medizinisc…
