This study shows macrophage-derived ROS restricts A. fumigatus germination and hyphal growth, while fungal melanin limits ROS activity, promoting immune evasion.

The paper demonstrates that Cp36 serine recombinase is a viable alternative to Tol2 for zebrafish transgenesis, with comparable efficiency for small constructs but reduced performance for larger ones.

This study identifies conserved CLR and TLR signaling pathways in zebrafish larvae that recognize fungal PAMPs and activate NF-κB, informing models of human fungal infections.
