Abstract
Candida albicans,Aspergillus fumigates and Cryptococcus neoformans are three important human opportunistic pathogens.Once these fungi enter the human body,they interact with immune system of the host,and cause innate immune responses followed by specific cellular and humoral immune responses,which are of great importance for the host defense against fungal infection and prevention of fungal escape from the host immune system.The authors highlight the current status of research in specific immune responses to C.albicans,A.fumigatus and C.neoformans infection,and analyze similarities and differences between the three fungi,in hope to provide clues for further esearch in this field. Key words: Candida albicans; Aspergillus fumigatus; Cryptococcus neoformans; Immunity
