متن کاملGrowth inhibition of Candida albicans by rabbit alveolar macrophages.
Normal rabbit alveolar macrophages were infected in vitro with Candida albicans. Early after infection, germ tube formation of phagocytized C. albicans was inhibited in contrast to extracellular (nonphagocytized) C. albicans. Over and 8-h period, plate counts of C. albicans incubated with alveolar macrophages revealed a decrease in colony-forming units in contrast to C. albicans alone. In addit...
