BDNF and fungal infectious disease: A set of DEGs (692 total) were further identified in a variety of neuro-related processes in response to fungal infection including neuroreceptor-related serotogenic (59 unigenes/collapsed to 20 unique gene name), synaptic vesicle cycle (58/15), cholinergic (74/18), dopaminergic (88/25), gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-ergic (64/15), and glutamatergic (80/20)- synapse pathways, as well a DEGs involved in the long-term depression (59/15) and potentiation (69/16), neurotrophin signaling (74/33), and retrograde endocannabinoid signaling (67/15).
