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 کاملMultilaboratory testing of two-drug combinations of antifungals against Candida albicans, Candida glabrata, and Candida parapsilosis.
There are few multilaboratory studies of antifungal combination testing to suggest a format for use in clinical laboratories. In the present study, eight laboratories tested quality control (QC) strain Candida parapsilosis ATCC 22019 and clinical isolates Candida albicans 20533.043, C. albicans 20464.007, Candida glabrata 20205.075, and C. parapsilosis 20580.070. The clinical isolates had relat...
متن کاملA Green Pigment from Candida stellatoidea and Candida albicans.
Ashford (1917) noted a faint greenish color in some of the colonies of cultures of Monilia albicars. No other reference to a green pigmentation of Monilia has been found in the literature. Of the 6 species of Monilia described by Martin, Jones, Yao and Lee (1937) and Jones and Martin (1938) it was noticed that Candida stellatoidea2 produced large amounts of green pigment. This was considered of...
متن کاملPutative Role of -1,3 Glucans in Candida albicans Biofilm Resistance
Biofilms are microbial communities, embedded in a polymeric matrix, growing attached to a surface. Nearly all device-associated infections involve growth in the biofilm life style. Biofilm communities have characteristic architecture and distinct phenotypic properties. The most clinically important phenotype involves extraordinary resistance to antimicrobial therapy, making biofilm infections v...
متن کاملConserved and Divergent Roles of Bcr1 and CFEM Proteins in Candida parapsilosis and Candida albicans
Candida parapsilosis is a pathogenic fungus that is major cause of hospital-acquired infection, predominantly due to growth as biofilms on indwelling medical devices. It is related to Candida albicans, which remains the most common cause of candidiasis disease in humans. The transcription factor Bcr1 is an important regulator of biofilm formation in vitro in both C. parapsilosis and C. albicans...
