The Alveolar Epithelial Cell Chemokine Response to Pneumocystis Requires Adaptor Molecule MyD88 and Interleukin-1 Receptor but Not Toll-Like Receptor 2 or 4

Pneumocystis is an opportunistic fungal pathogen that causes pneumonia in a variety of clinical settings. An early step in Pneumocystis infection involves the attachment of organisms to alveolar epithelial cells (AECs). AECs produce chemokines in response to Pneumocystis stimulation, but the upstrea...
