Complement receptor 3-dependent engagement by Candida glabrata β-glucan modulates dendritic cells to induce regulatory T-cell expansion

Open Biology
Candida glabrata is an important pathogen causing invasive infection associated with a high mortality rate. One mechanism that causes the failure of Candida eradication is an increase in regulatory T cells (Treg), which play a major role in immune ...

Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in Candida spp. biofilms: In vitro and in vivo protocols

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
This review addresses the critical challenges in translating in vitro antimicrobial photodynamic therapy protocols to in vivo models, with a particular focus on the hurdles of standardization. The vast diversity in photosensitizers and light parameters across different target cells and models requires a rigorous optimization process.

Candida glabrata: a review of its features and resistance [PDF]

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2013
Candida species belong to the normal microbiota of the oral cavity and gastrointestinal and vaginal tracts, and are responsible for several clinical manifestations, from mucocutaneous overgrowth to bloodstream infections. Once believed to be non-pathogenic, Candida glabrata was rapidly blamable for many human diseases.

Impact of Letermovir on Voriconazole Concentrations in Lung Transplant Patients

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Concomitant letermovir was associated with lower voriconazole exposure and reduced attainment of commonly used efficacy thresholds in lung transplant recipients. Routine therapeutic drug monitoring after letermovir initiation is recommended, and empiric voriconazole dose escalation may be needed to avoid subtherapeutic exposure. ABSTRACT Background The

Spontaneous Hyperinflation of Intragastric Balloon Presenting as Acute Pancreatitis

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Obesity is a metabolic disorder with considerable health implications affecting populations worldwide. Intragastric balloon (IGB) placement has gained popularity as a minimally invasive and reversible management option for obesity. Although generally safe, IGBs can sometimes be associated with serious adverse outcomes. We present a case of IGB

Differences in the gene expression profiles of Haemocytes from Schistosome-susceptible and -resistant Biomphalaria glabrata exposed to Schistosoma mansoni excretory-secretory products [PDF]

, 2014
During its life cycle, the helminth parasite Schistosoma mansoni uses the freshwater snail Biomphalaria glabrata as an intermediate host to reproduce asexually generating cercariae for infection of the human definitive host.
