Aspergillus fumigatus forms biofilms with reduced antifungal drug susceptibility on bronchial epithelial cells.

abstract：:Alphaviruses are arthropod-transmitted RNA viruses that can cause arthralgia, myalgia, and encephalitis in humans. Since the role of cellular kinases in alphavirus replication is unknown, we profiled kinetic changes in host kinase abundance and phosphorylation following chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection of fibroblas...
