Phenotypic Switching in Cryptococcus neoformans Contributes to Virulence by Changing the Immunological Host Response

Cryptococcus neoformans is an encapsulated opportunistic organism that can undergo phenotypic switching. In this process, the parent smooth colony (SM) switches to a more virulent mucoid colony (MC) variant. The host responses mounted against the SM and MC variants differ, and lower tissue interleuk...
