Inhibitory Effect of Garlic and Vitamin C on Candida Albicans

open access: yesFolia Medica Indonesiana, 2022
Highlight: 1. Garlic and Vitamin C effect on Candida Albicans. 2.  Vitamin C has the ability to inhibit C. albicans in PBS media but it did not have significant MIC due to the presence of glucose in the media if combined with garlic petroleum extract.

Pathophysiological microenvironments in oral candidiasis

open access: yesAPMIS, Volume 132, Issue 12, Page 956-973, December 2024.
Oral candidiasis (OC), a prevalent opportunistic infection of the oral mucosa, presents a considerable health challenge, particularly in individuals with compromised immune responses, advanced age, and local predisposing conditions. A considerable part of the population carries Candida in the oral cavity, but only few develop OC.

Cortactin: A major cellular target of viral, protozoal, and fungal pathogens

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 122, Issue 2, Page 165-183, August 2024.
Recent advances in research on various viral, protozoal, and fungal pathogens have deepened our understanding of microbial virulence strategies and human disease development. Cortactin, a key host protein involved in actin cytoskeletal dynamics, has emerged as crucial player in host–microbe interactions, with pathogens manipulating its expression and ...

Cross‐Sectional and Prospective Association of Serum 25‐Hydroxyvitamin D with Gut Mycobiota during Pregnancy among Women with Gestational Diabetes

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 68, Issue 11, June 2024.
There is limited research conducted on the relationship between vitamin D and gut mycobiota. This study reveals that individuals with sufficient serum vitamin D exhibit a decreased abundance of fecal Saccharomyces. The results obtain from the vitamin D genetic risk score analysessupport this relationship.

Digestive dynamics: Unveiling interplay between the gut microbiota and the liver in macronutrient metabolism and hepatic metabolic health

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 12, Issue 12, June 2024.
Abstract Although the liver is the largest metabolic organ in the body, it is not alone in functionality and is assisted by “an organ inside an organ,” the gut microbiota. This review attempts to shed light on the partnership between the liver and the gut microbiota in the metabolism of macronutrients (i.e., proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids).

Ahr1-dependent regulation of ECE1 and other core filamentation response genes in Candida albicans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Candida albicans is a normally harmless commensal fungus and part of the human microbiota. However, in immunocompromised patients, C. albicans can cause diseases ranging from superficial infections to life threatening systemic infections.

Candida albicans Morphology-Dependent Host FGF-2 Response as a Potential Therapeutic Target

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2019
Angiogenesis mediated by proteins such as Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 (FGF-2) is a vital component of normal physiological processes and has also been implicated in contributing to the disease state associated with various microbial infections.

Fangchinoline inhibits growth and biofilm of Candida albicans by inducing ROS overproduction

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 28, Issue 9, May 2024.
Abstract Infections caused by Candida species, especially Candida albicans, threaten the public health and create economic burden. Shortage of antifungals and emergence of drug resistance call for new antifungal therapies while natural products were attractive sources for developing new drugs.
