Comprehensive proteomic analysis of the protein expression landscape of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid during invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in murine and human samples. 38 murine BALF samples (10 Aspergillus fumigatus infected mice without immunosuppression and without invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), 19 immunosuppressed and infected mice with IPA and 9 immunosuppressed animals without infection) were analysed for their global protein expression. In addition, 54 human BALF specimen from patients with probable IPA (23 samples), proven IPA (4 cases) and 27 control samples from patients with unrelated pulmonary diseases were analysed for their global protein composition. Host responses and Aspergillus fumigatus-specific proteins detectable in BALF were studied.
