Antibody to Cryptococcus neoformans glucuronoxylomannan inhibits the release of capsular antigen.

Luis R Martinez1, Dariush Moussai, Arturo Casadevall.   

Abstract

Cryptococcus neoformans releases capsular polysaccharide in the supernatant of liquid cultures and in tissues. Significantly less glucuronoxylomannan (GXM) was released by C. neoformans in the presence of capsule-binding monoclonal antibody (MAb). MAb-mediated inhibition of GXM release may be another mechanism by which humoral immunity can mediate protection against this pathogen.
