Glucosylceramides from Lomentospora prolificans induce a differential production of cytokines and increases the microbicidal activity of macrophages

Lomentospora prolificans is an emerging opportunistic fungus with a high resistance to antifungal agents and it can cause localized infections in immunocompetent patients and disseminated infections with a high mortality rate in immunosuppressed patients. Glucosylceramides (GlcCer) are synthetized i...
