However, in chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) patients, &lt;i&gt;A. nidulans&lt;\/i&gt; is a frequent cause of invasive aspergillosis and is associated with higher mortality. Immune recognition of &lt;i&gt;A. nidulans &lt;\/i&gt;was compared to &lt;i&gt;A. fumigatus &lt;\/i&gt;to offer an insight into why &lt;i&gt;A. nidulans&lt;\/i&gt; infections are prevalent in CGD. Live cell imaging with J774A.1 macrophage-like cells and LC3-GFP-mCherry bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) revealed that phagocytosis of &lt;i&gt;A. nidulans &lt;\/i&gt;was slower compared to &lt;i&gt;A. fumigatus&lt;\/i&gt;. This difference could be attributed to slower migration of J774A.1 cells and a lower percentage of migrating BMDMs. In addition, delayed phagosome acidification and LC3-associated phagocytosis was observed with &lt;i&gt;A. nidulans&lt;\/i&gt;. Cytokine and oxidative burst measurements in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells revealed a lower oxidative burst upon challenge with &lt;i&gt;A. nidulans&lt;\/i&gt;. In contrast, &lt;i&gt;A. nidulans&lt;\/i&gt; induced significantly higher concentrations of cytokines. Collectively, our data demonstrate that &lt;i&gt;A. nidulans &lt;\/i&gt;is phagocytosed and processed at a slower rate compared to &lt;i&gt;A. fumigatus,&lt;\/i&gt; resulting in reduced fungal killing and increased germination of conidia. This slower rate of &lt;i&gt;A. nidulans&lt;\/i&gt; clearance may be permissive for overgrowth within certain immune settings.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000484562","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,15]],"date-time":"2017-12-15T22:01:22Z","timestamp":1513375282000},"page":"145-160","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Differential Kinetics of Aspergillus nidulans and Aspergillus fumigatus Phagocytosis"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Mark S.","family":"Gresnigt","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Katharina L.","family":"Becker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Floris","family":"Leenders","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.
