Virulence Factors Contributing to Pathogenicity of Candida tropicalis and Its Antifungal Susceptibility Profile
The incidence of invasive candidiasis has increased over the past few decades. Although Candida albicans remains by far the most common species encountered, in recent years shift towards non-albicans Candida species like Candida tropicalis is noted. Here in this study we determined the virulence factors and antifungal susceptibility profile of 125 C. tropicalis isolated from various clinical sp...
متن کاملVirulence Traits Contributing to Pathogenicity of Candida Species
The fungus belonging to genus Candida is the only opportunistic mycotic pathogen causing a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations ranging from mucocutaneous overgrowth to life threatening disseminated infections [1]. This opportunistic fungal pathogen is ubiquitous in nature and can exist as saprophyte and commensal. However, under certain conditions Candida may transit from a commensal to a ...
متن کاملCryptococcus neoformans var. grubii - Pathogenicity of environmental isolates correlated to virulence factors, susceptibility to fluconazole and molecular profile.
The pathogenicity of Cryptococcus neoformans is heterogeneous and is associated with the expression of virulence factors. This study aimed to correlate the pathogenicity of C. neoformans var. grubii in BALB/c mice with in vitro virulence factors, fluconazole minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and molecular profiles, before and after animal passage. Ten environmental isolates and one ATCC ...
متن کاملCandida albicans and virulence factors that increases its pathogenicity
Candida albicans are yeasts frequently human commensal and it is the main cause of different forms of oral, superficial or systemic candidiasis. The transformation from a harmless commensal to a virulent pathogen under the conditions of a dysfunctional host defense system is attributable to an extensive repertoire of selectively expressed virulence determinants. Several virulence factors contri...
