Epithelial uptake leads to fungal killing in vivo and is aberrant in COPD-derived epithelial cells
Summary: Hundreds of spores of Aspergillus fumigatus (Af) are inhaled daily by human beings, representing a constant, possibly fatal, threat to respiratory health. The small size of Af spores suggests that interactions with alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) are frequent; thus, we hypothesized that sp...
