Antifungal immune responses: emerging host–pathogen interactions and translational implications

Editorial summary Understanding the complex and highly dynamic interactions between fungi and host cells in a tissue-specific manner is crucial to facilitate the development of new therapeutic approaches to infections. Here, we discuss recent studies that are revealing the mechanisms underlying this...
