This study shows that co-infection with Ehrlichia and Borrelia burgdorferi in mice causes arthritis and emergency myelopoiesis, highlighting immune signals over pathogen burden in disease development.

This study evaluates the impact of Candida auris infection in neutropenic murine models, finding that neutrophil depletion leads to persistent fungal burden and unique behavioral changes.

This study assesses environmental and occupational exposure to Candida auris during animal facility work using murine models and finds dose-dependent shedding and effective mitigation strategies.

This study shows that CD11c+ phagocytes in Peyer’s patches exhibit differential gene expression in response to Candida albicans, distinguishing between strains and contributing to mucosal barrier protection.
