Aspergillus nidulans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen in patients with immunodeficiency, and virulence of A. nidulans isolates has mainly been studied in the context of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), with characterization of clinical isolates obtained from non-CGD patients remaining elusive.

Patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) that is the most common brain cancer in adults have a rather poor prognosis. The accumulation of immune suppressive myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) is negatively associated with clinical outcomes in various cancers. A recent study
Microbial colonizers of humans have evolved to adapt to environmental cues and to sense nutrient availability. Oxygen is a constantly changing environmental parameter in different host tissues and in different types of infection. We describe how Candida albicans, an opportunistic

Methionine (Met) is one of the 2 most limiting amino acids for milk production in dairy cow diets. The accepted "ideal" ratio of lysine (Lys) to Met (L:M) when formulating diets is 3:1. However, blood from cows fed corn silage-based
Staphylococcus aureus is an opportunistic pathogen that produces many virulence factors. Two major families of which are the staphylococcal superantigens (SAgs) and the Staphylococcal Superantigen-Like (SSL) exoproteins. The former are immunomodulatory toxins that induce a Vβ-specific activation of T cells
