Abstract Fungal spores are abundant in the environment and a major cause of asthma. Originally characterised as a type 2 inflammatory disease, allergic airway inflammation that underpins asthma can also involve type 17 inflammation, which can exacerbate disease causing failure of treatments tailored to inhibit type 2 factors. However, the mechanisms that determine the host response to fungi, which can trigger both type 2 and type 17 inflammation in allergic airway disease, remain unclear.

Abstract Background. Exposure to fungi, especially Aspergillus fumigatus (A.f.), can elicit potent allergic inflammation that triggers and worsens asthmatic disease. Dendritic cells (DCs), initiate allergic inflammatory responses to allergic stimuli. However, it is unclear if A.f. spores during isotropic growth (early spore swelling) can activate DCs to initiate allergic responses or if germination is required.

Former NRL player Dan Conn answers the question: should you eat differently depending on the type of training you’re doing?

One of the most valuable lessons I’ve learnt is the ability to listen to your body and know what it needs and when. Recognising that on a run your body utilises stored energy dictates how you refuel after you stop.
