A unique biofilm in human deep mycoses: fungal amyloid is bound by host serum amyloid P component
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: We have demonstrated the presence of Candida cell surface amyloids that are important in aggregation of fungi and adherence to tissue. Fungal amyloid was present in invasive human candidal infections and host serum amyloid P component (SAP) bound to the fungal amyloid. SAP is...
