Chemotaxis of human neutrophils and monocytes induced by Cryptococcus neoformans

R D Diamond et al. Infect Immun. 1982 Oct.

Abstract

Chemotaxis of human neutrophils and monocytes was stimulated by sera activated with greater than or equal to 1.25 x 10(6) Cryptococcus neoformans. Leukocytes from five renal transplant recipients had depressed chemotactic responses to C. neoformans-activated sera when compared with normal subjects (P less than 0.05). Concentrations of cryptococcal capsular polysaccharide less than 1 mg/ml failed to generate chemotactic factors from sera.
