Human intestinal epithelial cells can internalize luminal fungi via LC3-associated phagocytosis

BackgroundIntestinal epithelial cells (IECs) are the first to encounter luminal microorganisms and actively participate in intestinal immunity. We reported that IECs express the β-glucan receptor Dectin-1, and respond to commensal fungi and β-glucans. In phagocytes, Dectin-1 mediates LC3-associated...
