EphA2-Dependent Internalization of A. fumigatus Conidia in A549 Lung Cells Is Modulated by DHN-Melanin
Dectin-1 and ephrin type-A receptor 2 (EphA2) receptors recognize β-glucan present in the fungal cell wall. Inhibition of Dectin-1 with the monoclonal 2a11 antibody was shown to reduce internalization of conidia of the human pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus into epithelial cells. In this study, we inv...
