Immune Modulation and Evasion by Cryptococcus spp.: An Integrative Review of Molecular Mechanisms and Experimental Evidence

The Cryptococcus species complex are major human pathogenic fungi capable of causing cryptococcosis, a severe pneumonia and meningitidis in both immunocompromised and, in some cases, immunocompetent patients. Their pathogenic success depends not only on classical virulence factors, but also on a coordinated capacity to...
