Macrophages, on the other hand, play an important role in the early immune response against Cn and a macrophage-like J774A.1 cell line model is available for studying the Cn-macrophage interaction [51]. When appropriately stimulated, macrophage-like J774A.1 cells exhibit measurable parameters in uptake, ingestion, and clearance or lysis of fungal cells that correlate with in vivo infection outcomes.

    Cin1 is expressed as two isoforms, Cin1-S and Cin1-L, as demonstrated by RT-PCR and Northern blotting analysis {Shen, 2010 #5449}. Cin1-S lacks the C-terminal RhoGEF-PH domain that potentially activates the Rho family GTPase Cdc42 through a highly regulated intramolecular interaction {Shen, 2012 #5719}. Despite exhibiting no detectable growth differences under the lab condition, we found that Cin1-S maintains a competitive survival advantage in CNS over WT in a murine model of cryptococcosis. The

    The Yellow Fever virus came from Central or East Africa. With transmission between primates and humans, the virus has been spread from there to West Africa.

In Philadelphia in 1793, more than the 9% of the population die. The American
