Opsonization of Cryptococcus neoformans by human immunoglobulin G: masking of immunoglobulin G by cryptococcal polysaccharide.

Previous studies have shown that attachment of non-encapsulated cryptococci to macrophages is highly dependent on opsonizing immunoglobulin G (IgG) and that cryptococcal polysaccharide inhibits the attachment phase of phagocytosis. We investigated various mechanisms by which cryptococcal polysacchar...
