Melanization of Cryptococcus neoformans Affects Lung Inflammatory Responses during Cryptococcal Infection

The production of melanin pigments is associated with virulence for many microbes. Melanin is believed to contribute to microbial virulence by protecting microbial cells from oxidative attack during infection. However, there is also evidence from various systems that melanins have immunomodulatory p...
