Dimorphism and dissemination of histoplasma capsulatum in the upper respiratory tract after intranasal infection of bats and mice with mycelial propagules

ABSTRACT: This article describes, for the first time, the role of the nasal mucosa (NM) as the initial site for the Histoplasma capsulatum mycelial-to-yeast transition. The results highlight that yeasts may arrive to the cervical lymph nodes (CLN) via phagocytes. Bats and mice were intranasally infe...
