Iron tug-of-war: How a fungus builds its fortress against the immune system
A study led by a global research consortium offers new hope for patients with mycetoma, a neglected tropical disease. Researchers using an insect model and transcriptome analysis have unraveled the mechanism of iron regulation between host tissue and the mycetoma grain, a fungal mass characteristic of the disease.
