Inhibitory Effect of Garlic and Vitamin C on Candida Albicans
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
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
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 ...

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.

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]
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
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
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.
