Biological boundary conditions regulate the internalization of Aspergillus fumigatus conidia by alveolar cells
Our findings emphasize the essential role that local mechanical and biochemical cues play in shaping the interactions between fungal pathogens and alveolar cells. Understanding how lung boundary conditions change in disease states will provide important insights into fungal infection outcomes.
