Assessment of the pulmonary adaptive immune response to Cladosporium cladosporioides infection using an experimental mouse model

Abstract Cladosporium cladosporioides causes asthma and superficial and deep infections, mostly in immunodeficient individuals and animals. This study aimed to investigate whether C. cladosporioides spores can enter the lungs through pulmonary circulation and influence pulmonary immune response. We...
