Human Neutrophil-Mediated Nonoxidative Antifungal Activity against Cryptococcus neoformans

It has long been appreciated that polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) kill Cryptococcus neoformans, at least in part via generation of fungicidal oxidants. The aim of this study was to examine the contribution of nonoxidative mechanisms to the inhibition and killing of C. neoformans. Treatment of hum...
