SOD2 and infection: fumigatus genes upregulated in response to neutrophilexposure in vitro, 18 (60%) were also moreabundantly represented during initiation of murine infection (Figures 6 and S2).Interestingly these included the two major A. fumigatusantioxidant enzymes, Mn superoxide dismutase (Afu1g14550) and the bifunctionalcatalase-peroxidase Cat2 (Afu8g01670).
