Analysis of Global Gene Expression Changes in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells Exposed to Spores of the Allergenic Fungus, Alternaria alternata

Analysis of Global Gene Expression Changes in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells Exposed to Spores of the Allergenic Fungus, Alternaria alternata

Exposure and sensitivity to ubiquitous airborne fungi such as Alternaria alternata have long been implicated in the development, onset, and exacerbation of chronic allergic airway disorders. This present study is the first to investigate global changes in host gene expression during the interaction...
