Candida parapsilosis Protects Premature Intestinal Epithelial Cells from Invasion and Damage by Candida albicans
Candida is a leading cause of late-onset sepsis in premature infants and is thought to invade the host via immature or damaged epithelial barriers. We previously showed that the hyphal form of Candida albicans invades and causes damage to premature intestinal epithelial cells (pIECs), whereas the non-hyphal Candida parapsilosis, also a fungal pathogen of neonates, has less invasion and damage a...
متن کاملTrafficking of Candida albicans through oral epithelial endocytic compartments.
Oral epithelial cells are the first cells that interact with C. albicans during the establishment of oropharyngeal candidiasis. Following initial adhesion, C. albicans invades oral epithelial cells by inducing its own endocytosis and gains access to epithelial vacuolar compartments. Epithelial endocytic pathways are key innate immune mechanisms in host defense. We examined the trafficking of C....
متن کاملCandida albicans Pathogenicity and Epithelial Immunity
Candida species are one of the most common fungal pathogens of humans and the causative agents of superficial and invasive candidiasis. The vast majority of Candida infections are mucosal, manifesting as vaginal or oral candidiasis, which together account for an estimated 40 million infections per year. High-level Candida colonisation is also associated with several gut diseases, including Croh...
متن کاملComplement component C5a mediates hemorrhage-induced intestinal damage.
BACKGROUND Complement has been implicated in the pathogenesis of intestinal damage and inflammation in multiple animal models. Although the exact mechanism is unknown, inhibition of complement prevents hemodynamic alterations in hemorrhage. MATERIALS AND METHODS C57Bl/6, complement 5 deficient (C5-/-) and sufficient (C5+/+) mice were subjected to 25% blood loss. In some cases, C57Bl/6 mice we...
متن کاملAttenuation by l-thyroxine of oxidant-induced gut epithelial damage
Objective(s): Severe injuries are often associated with tissue hypothyroidism, elevated damaging mediators in circulation, and broken gut epithelial barrier. However, the relationships between the hypothyroid state and gut epithelial damage are largely unknown. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the effects of L-thyroxine (T4) on in vitro models of intact and ...
