The IL-1 Family Controls Acute Mucosal Fungal Infection and Mucosal-Systemic Dissemination.

James S. Griffiths, Alexander Kempf, Robert J. Pickering, Emily L. Priest, Olivia K. A. Paulin, Léa Lortal, Andrew J. Donkin, Olivia W. Hepworth, Don N. Wickramasinghe, Aize Pellón, Adrian Lau, Harun Papini, Sarah L. Gaffen, Jonathan P. Richardson, Julian R. Naglik

This study shows the IL-1 family is essential for mucosal defense against Candida albicans, preventing infection and dissemination, but its absence in neutropenic conditions leads to fatal systemic infection.

Bacterial suppression of intestinal fungi via activation of human gut γδ T-cells

Liya Mathew, Sean Carlson, Michael Savage, Claire Pardieu, Megan O’Brien, Ellie Crawley, Paul Harrow, Ann-Kristin Kaune, Edward Devlin, Emily L. Priest, Marilena Crescente, Kimberly Martinod, James R. Boot, Marco Gasparetto, Klaartje Bel Kok, , Neil E. McCarthy

The paper shows that bacterial metabolite HMB-PP activates human gut γδ T-cells to suppress fungal growth, but this mechanism is impaired in Crohn's disease.
