The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) in antifungal defense and its potential use in adjunctive immunotherapy. Solid organ transplant (SOT) and hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients are at increased risk for invasive fungal infections. Mortality rates remain unacceptably high despite antifungal treatment. Novel therapeutic modalities are urgently needed. In this project, we propose to study the role of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) in antifungal defense and its potential use in adjunctive immunotherapy.
