Project description:Fungal infections claim an estimated 1.5 million lives every year. Mechanisms that protect from fungal infections are still elusive. Recognition of fungal pathogens relies on C-type lectin receptors (CLR) and their downstream signaling kinase SYK. Here we report that the E3-ubiquitin-ligase CBL-B controls proximal C-type lectin receptor signaling in macrophages and dendritic cells. We show that CBL-B associates with SYK and ubiquitinates SYK, Dectin-1, and Dectin-2 upon fungal recognition. Functionally, CBL-B deficiency results in increased inflammasome activation, enhanced reactive oxygen species production, and increased fungal killing. Genetic deletion of Cblb protects mice from morbidity caused by cutaneous infection and markedly improves survival upon a lethal systemic infection with Candida albicans. Based on these findings, we engineered a cell-permeable CBL-B inhibitory peptide that protects mice from lethal C. albicans infections. We thus describe a key role for Cblb in the regulation of innate anti-fungal immunity and establish a novel paradigm for the treatment of fungal sepsis.

Project description:The present study was designed to test the hypothesis of a widespread photochemical trait in fruiting body-forming fungal species. The biomaterial was selected based on Gill and Steglich's classification of fungal pigments, which focuses on their biosynthetic origin. With the aim to cover most described pigment types, 48 different species were selected. Second, dried and ground fruiting bodies were extracted and subjected to UPLC-HRMS/MS measurement.

Project description:Embryogenic cultures derived from a zygotic embryo of the avocado cv. Anaheim, were selected for resistance to the culture filtrate (CF) of Rosellinia necatrix, the causal agent of avocado white root rot. Cultures were obtained through recurrent selections in progressively increasing concentrations of fungal CF (from 20% up to 80%).

Project description:RATIONALE: Gathering information about how often fungal infections of the blood occur in patients with cancer or in patients who have undergone stem cell transplant may help doctors learn more about the disease.
PURPOSE: This natural history study is collecting information about fungal infections of the blood over time from patients with cancer or from patients who have undergone a stem cell transplant.
