Blockade of the PD-1/PD-L1 Immune Checkpoint Pathway Improves Infection Outcomes and Enhances Fungicidal Host Defense in a Murine Model of Invasive Pulmonary Mucormycosis

Anecdotal clinical reports suggested a benefit of adjunct immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) to treat invasive mucormycosis. However, proof-of-concept data in animal models and mechanistic insights into the effects of ICIs on host defense against Mucorales are lacking. Therefore, we studied the eff...
