Paracoccidioides brasiliensis induces secretion of IL-6 and IL-8 by lung epithelial cells. Modulation of host cytokine levels by fungal proteases

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is a pathogenic, dimorphic fungus that causes paracoccidioidomycosis, a systemic human mycosis that is highly prevalent in Latin America. In this study, we demonstrated that P. brasiliensis yeasts induced interleukin (IL)-8 and IL-6 secretion by human lung epithelial A5...
