In vitro lymphoproliferative response and cytokine production in mice with experimental disseminated candidiasis
Objective(s): Systemic candidiasis is an infection of Candida albicans (C. albicans) causing disseminated disease and sepsis, invariably when host defenses are compromised. We investigated the histopathological changes as well as the lymphoproliferative responses and cytokine production of splenic cells after stimulation with Concanavalin A (Con A) and Pokeweed mitogen (PWM) in mice with dissem...

متن کاملCongenital cutaneous candidiasis.
In the first hour of life the infant became tachypnoeic and was admitted to the special care nursery for investigation. On examination his weight of 3640g was appropriate for a gestational age of 39 weeks. He was tachypnoeic with an overinflated chest. There was a widespread erythematous rash over the neck, trunk and limbs. White cell count was 20.3 x 109/1, 85% neutrophils; platelets 238,000/m...
متن کاملCandida-specific antibodies during experimental vaginal candidiasis in mice.
Protective host defense mechanisms against vaginal Candida albicans infections are poorly understood. Although cell-mediated immunity (CMI) is the predominant host defense mechanism against most mucosal Candida infections, the role of CMI against vaginal candidiasis is uncertain, both in humans and in an experimental mouse model. The role of humoral immunity is equally unclear. While clinical o...
متن کاملOral lactoferrin treatment of experimental oral candidiasis in mice.
We assessed the potential of lactoferrin (LF), a multifunctional milk protein, for treatment of oral candidiasis with immunosuppressed mice, which have local symptoms characteristic of oral thrush. Oral administration of bovine LF in drinking water starting 1 day before the infection significantly reduced the number of Candida albicans in the oral cavity and the score of lesions on the tongue o...
