Fungal Immunology

Fungal immunology explores the intricate interactions between the immune system and fungal pathogens. Fungi, such as Candida and Aspergillus, can cause a range of infections, from superficial skin conditions to life-threatening systemic diseases, especially in immunocompromised individuals. The immune response to fungal infections involves both innate and adaptive components. Innate mechanisms include phagocytosis by macrophages and neutrophils, while adaptive immunity relies on T cells and B cells to recognize and combat fungal invaders. Fungal immunology research delves into understanding host-pathogen interactions, fungal evasion strategies, and the development of immunotherapeutic approaches. Antifungal vaccines, designed to stimulate protective immune responses, are a focus of ongoing studies.
