PLB-985 neutrophil-like cells as a model to study Aspergillus fumigatus pathogenesis

M. Rafiq, F. Rivieccio, A.-K. Zimmermann, C. Visser, A. Bruch, T. Krüger, K. Gonzalez Rojas, O. Kniemeyer, M. G. Blango, A. A. Brakhage

This paper demonstrates that differentiated PLB-985 cells can model key aspects of A. fumigatus interactions with human neutrophils, including phagocytosis, extracellular trap release, and antifungal vesicle production.

I. A. Shopova, I. Belyaev, P. Dasari, S. Jahreis, M. C. Stroe, Z. Cseresnyes, A.-K. Zimmermann, A. Medyukhina, C.-M. Svensson, T. Krueger, V. Szeifert, S. Nietzsche, T. Conrad, M. G. Blango, O. Kniemeyer, , A. A. Brakhage

This study identifies antifungal extracellular vesicles (afEVs) released by human neutrophils in response to Aspergillus fumigatus, which associate with fungal cells and reduce growth through antimicrobial cargo.
