Endocytic Markers Associated with the Internalization and Processing of <italic toggle="yes">Aspergillus fumigatus</italic> Conidia by BEAS-2B Cells

ABSTRACT Aspergillus fumigatus is a ubiquitous mold that produces small airborne conidia capable of traversing deep into the respiratory system. Recognition, processing, and clearance of A. fumigatus conidia by bronchial airway epithelial cells are thought to be relevant to host defense and immune s...
