Abstract:
The effect of selected cytokines on the antifungal activity of human microglia was studied with encapsulated and acapsular strains of Cryptococcus neoformans . None of the cytokines tested increased the fungistatic activity of microglia, suggesting that killing of cryptococci within the central nervous system is dependent on other host defense mechanisms.
