Investigation of Candida dubliniensis in Candida spp.‐positive hemocultures

APMIS, 2002
Candida dubliniensis is one of the Candida species which was first recognized in 1995. The yeast was misidentified because of its phenotypic similarities with Candida albicans. In this study, blood samples of patients from various departments at Ankara University Medical Faculty between January ...

CUG codons inCandida spp.

Journal of Molecular Evolution, 1996
Codon CUG is used for serine instead of for leucine, its usual assignment, in several yeasts of the genus Candida. We propose a series of steps for the reassignment, including disappearance of leucine CUG and its anticodon CAG, formation of a new serine tRNA, with anticodon CAG, from a duplication of the gene for serine tRNA (IGA), and then production ...

Studies on the nucleus of candida spp

Mycopathologia, 1959
Nuclear division inCandida albicans during budding and blastospore formation is described. Classic mitotic division as it occurs in the higher ascomycetes is not seen. Instead, the semi-lunar (crescentic) chromatinic material in the nucleus increases so as to fill the nuclear vesicle, often assuming a toroid-like aspect.

Emerging Candida spp. Infections

2003
More than 150 species of Candida have been idenfified, but only a dosen or so have been regarded as important pathogens in humans. Although C. albicans remains the most common fungal pathogen, over the past decade or so, there has been an increasing number of reports implicating non-albicans species causing opportunistic mycoses (1).

Phospholipase Activity in Candida Albicans, Candida Spp and Other Yeasts

1991
The ability of Candida albicansto produce cytolytic enzymes such as proteinases 1,2 and phospholipases 3,4 may be associated with the pathogenicity of this fungus 5. The phospholipases secreted by C. albicanscould play a part in the invasion of the host tissues in lesions of candidosis 6 by disrupting the epithelial cell membranes and allowing the ...

Examination on Candida spp. in refractory periapical granulomas

International Endodontic Journal, 2003
AbstractAim  To examine the occurrence of Candida spp. in refractory periapical granulomas.Methodology  One hundred and three surgically removed periapical granulomas were subjected to molecular analysis for the occurrence of Candida albicans. DNA was extracted from the samples using a modified phenol/chloroform/isoamyl alcohol method and was subjected

Immunological Features Protect Against Candida spp.

2015
The epithelial mucosa is an important component of the host immune defense and immune surveillance since it is the first layer that most microorganisms initially contact. The most important function of the immune system is to discriminate between self and nonself, a property that is essential for the maintenance of immune homeostasis.

Novel Therapies for Biofilm-Based Candida spp. Infections

2019
The presence of fungal infections continue to grow worldwide, mostly in immunosuppressed patients, and in individuals with continued antimicrobial treatments. Candida spp. are the most common yeasts involved in these disorders, being associated with a high rate of antifungal resistance and an increased ability to form biofilms, which make the treatment

[Vertebral osteomyelitis due to Candida spp].

Enfermedades infecciosas y microbiologia clinica, 2004
Vertebral osteomyelitis is rarely caused by Candida species; therefore, a high index of suspicion is required for its diagnosis.We describe three cases of vertebral osteomyelitis due to Candida spp. diagnosed over a seventeen-year period.Among 110 episodes of vertebral osteomyelitis, three were caused by Candida spp. All three patients had risk factors
