Immune response to early and late Histoplasma capsulatum infections
Abstract
Knowledge of the host response to the intracellular pathogenic fungus Histoplasma capsulatum has increased dramatically. Information has accumulated regarding the cellular and molecular determinants that lead to resolution of both primary and secondary infection. The significance of cytokines and other endogenous soluble mediators to the protective immune response have been analyzed. Moreover, work concerning the relative importance of T cell subsets to protective immunity has been initiated.
