Fungal extracts stimulate solitary chemosensory cell expansion in noninvasive fungal rhinosinusitis
ConclusionAlthough fungal antigens are known to potentiate immune response through innate cytokines, including IL ‐25, the early expansion of SCCs in the presence of fungus has not been described. This early event in the pathogenesis of noninvasive fungal rhinosinusitis may represent a target for intervention.
