Toll-like receptor 2 and dectin-1 function as promising biomarker for Aspergillus fumigatus infection.

In conclusion, upon infection of cells with Aspergillus fumigatus, TLR2 and dectin-1 expression levels were significantly altered. Therefore, TLR2 and dectin-1 levels may function as promising biomarkers for the treatment or diagnosis of Aspergillus fumigatus infection. PMID: 29042988 [PubMed]
