Genotyping of Aspergillus fumigatus in Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Tissues and Serum Samples From Patients With Invasive Aspergillosis.

abstract：Background:Disseminated histoplasmosis remains a major killer of immunocompromised patients in Latin America. Cytological and histological methods are usually present in most hospitals and may represent a precious diagnostic method. We report 15 years of experience of the department of pathology of the Centre Hospitali...

abstract：:Infections with parasites of the genus Leishmania lead to a rapid, but transient activation of natural killer (NK) cells. In mice activation of NK cells requires a toll-like-receptor 9-dependent stimulation of dendritic cells (DC) which is followed by the production of IL-12. Although NK cells appear to be non-essenti...
