The dimorphic fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis (P. brasiliensis) is the etiologic agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), a systemic mycosis that is endemic in Latin America. Studies aiming to characterize the immune response in PCM have turned to the understanding of the role of antigen-presenting cells since the fine regulation of this response is due, in large part, to the initial i…
The objective of this study is to evaluate if human dendritic cells (DCs) produce PGE2 and LTB4 in response to high and low virulent strains of P.brasiliensis. In addition, the role of pattern recognizing receptors in this production, and the modulatory effect of these eicosanoids in DCs functions will be studied. DCs obtained from monocytes treatment with IL-4 and GM-CSF will be incubat…
