[HTML][HTML] CotH3 mediates fungal invasion of host cells during mucormycosis

T Gebremariam, M Liu, G Luo, V Bruno… - The Journal of …, 2014 - Am Soc Clin Investig
Angioinvasion is a hallmark of mucormycosis. Previously, we identified endothelial cell
glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) as a receptor for Mucorales that mediates host cell …

The high affinity iron permease is a key virulence factor required for Rhizopus oryzae pathogenesis

AS Ibrahim, T Gebremariam, L Lin, G Luo… - Molecular …, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Rhizopus oryzae is the most common cause of mucormycosis, an angioinvasive fungal
infection that causes more then 50% mortality rate despite first‐line therapy. Clinical and animal …

Combination echinocandin-polyene treatment of murine mucormycosis

AS Ibrahim, T Gebremariam, Y Fu… - Antimicrobial agents …, 2008 - Am Soc Microbiol
We previously found that caspofungin synergized with amphotericin B lipid complex in
treating murine mucormycosis. We now report a similarly enhanced activity of liposomal …

[HTML][HTML] An integrated genomic and transcriptomic survey of mucormycosis-causing fungi

MC Chibucos, S Soliman, T Gebremariam… - Nature …, 2016 - nature.com
Mucormycosis is a life-threatening infection caused by Mucorales fungi. Here we sequence
30 fungal genomes, and perform transcriptomics with three representative Rhizopus and …

[HTML][HTML] Bicarbonate correction of ketoacidosis alters host-pathogen interactions and alleviates mucormycosis

T Gebremariam, L Lin, M Liu… - The Journal of …, 2016 - Am Soc Clin Investig
Patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) are uniquely predisposed to mucormycosis, an
angioinvasive fungal infection with high mortality. Previously, we demonstrated that Rhizopus …

PCR-based approach targeting mucorales-specific gene family for diagnosis of mucormycosis

…, HH Jeon, S Alkhazraji, T Gebremariam… - Journal of clinical …, 2018 - Am Soc Microbiol
Mucormycosis is an aggressive, life-threatening infection caused by fungi in the order
Mucorales. The current diagnosis of mucormycosis relies on mycological cultures, radiology and …

GRP78 and integrins play different roles in host cell invasion during mucormycosis

A Alqarihi, T Gebremariam, Y Gu, M Swidergall… - MBio, 2020 - Am Soc Microbiol
Mucormycosis, caused by Rhizopus species, is a life-threatening fungal infection that occurs
in patients immunocompromised by diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), cytotoxic chemotherapy, …

Posaconazole mono-or combination therapy for treatment of murine zygomycosis

AS Ibrahim, T Gebremariam, JA Schwartz… - Antimicrobial Agents …, 2009 - Am Soc Microbiol
We compared the efficacy of combination posaconazole-liposomal amphotericin B (LAmB)
therapy to monotherapy with either drug in diabetic ketoacidotic or neutropenic mice with …

Tuning sterol extraction kinetics yields a renal-sparing polyene antifungal

…, G Johns, MJ Hageman, J Krise, T Gebremariam… - Nature, 2023 - nature.com
Decades of previous efforts to develop renal-sparing polyene antifungals were misguided
by the classic membrane permeabilization model 1 . Recently, the clinically vital but also …

NDV-3 protects mice from vulvovaginal candidiasis through T-and B-cell immune response

AS Ibrahim, G Luo, T Gebremariam, H Lee, CS Schmidt… - Vaccine, 2013 - Elsevier
We have previously reported that vaccination with rAls3p-N protein of Candida albicans,
formulated with alum adjuvant (also designated as NDV-3) protects immunocompetent mice …
