Dendritic cells restrict the transformation of Histoplasma capsulatum conidia into yeasts

Infections due to Histoplasma capsulatum occur as a result of the inhalation of airborne microconidia of the mold into the alveoli of the lungs. In this study we quantified the transformation over time of conidia into yeast-like cells within macrophages (MΦ) and dendritic cells (DC). Conidia from st...
