CLEC4A and CLEC12B C-type lectin receptors mediate interactions with < em > Pneumocystis < /em > cell wall components

Conclusion. The data presented here provide new members of the CLRs family recognizing Pneumocystis. Future studies using CLEC4A and/or CLEC12B deficient mice in the PCP mouse model should provide further insights into the host immunological response to Pneumocystis.PMID:37294293 | DOI:10.1099/jmm.0.001714
