Inhibitory effects of a maleimide compound on the virulence factors of Candida albicans
Candidiasis caused by Candida albicans infection has long been a serious human health problem. The pathogenicity of C. albicans is mainly due to its virulence factors, which are novel targets of antifungal drugs for low risk of resistance development. In

Unexpected Candidal Hyphae in Oral Mucosa Lesions—A Clinico-Pathological Study
Background: Oral mucosal biopsies might harbor candidal hyphae (CH) in the absence of any clinical signs or symptoms. Aim: To assess oral mucosa biopsies for the frequency of unexpected CH and characterize their clinico-pathological features.

Contributions of hyphae and hypha-co-regulated genes to Candida albicans virulence [PDF]
The fascinating ability of Candida albicans to undergo dramatic changes in cellular morphology has invited speculation that this plasticity in form contributes to the virulence of the organism. Molecular genetic analyses have confirmed this hypothesis and further demonstrated that genes that govern cellular morphology are co-regulated with genes ...

Summary: Evasion of killing by immune cells is crucial for fungal survival in the host. For the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans, internalization by macrophages induces a transition from yeast to filaments that promotes macrophage death and fungal ...

Respiration supports intraphagosomal filamentation and escape of Candida albicans from macrophages
For the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans, metabolic flexibility and the ability to transition between yeast and filamentous growth states are key virulence traits that enable disease in the host.
