Scientists have discovered a new way of stopping a deadly fungal infection from spreading from the lungs of patients to their brains. The pathogen hijacks the immune system, and studying this process ...

COUGH and chest pain are just two of the symptoms of a potentially deadly infection can be caused by breathing in airbourne fungi. A team of researchers have studied Cryptococcosis, a disease that ...

This movie shows the process of vomocytosis. A fungal cell (Cryptococcus neoformans) has been engulfed by a macrophage (a type of white blood cell); at the start of the movie the fungal cell is ...

Research led by the University of Birmingham has discovered a way to stop a deadly fungus from 'hijacking' the body's immune system and spreading to the brain. The team studied Cryptococcosis, a ...

Researchers observed that the cells are able to escape from the macrophages without destroying them, preventing an immune response. Yeast fungus cells that commonly attack HIV infected patients escape ...

Scientists have discovered a way to stop a deadly fungal infection from hijacking the body's immune system and spreading to the brain. Researchers, including those from Universities of Sheffield in ...
