Deciphering chemokine properties by an agent-based model of Aspergillus fumigatus infection in human alveoli
The ubiquitous airborne fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus is inhaled by humans every day. In the lung, it is able to quickly adapt to the humid environment and, if not removed within a time frame of 4-8 hours, the pathogen may cause damage by germination and invasive growth. Applying a to-scale...
