Expression of Dectin-1 and Enhanced Activation of NALP3 Inflammasome Are Associated with Resistance to Paracoccidioidomycosis
Dectin-1 is a pattern recognition receptor (PRR) that recognizes β-glucans and plays a major role in the immunity against fungal pathogens. Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, the causative agent of paracoccidioidomycosis, has a sugar-rich cell wall mainly composed of mannans and glucans. To investigate...
