The Dual Function of the Fungal Toxin Candidalysin during Candida albicans—Macrophage Interaction and Virulence
The dimorphic fungus Candida albicans is both a harmless commensal organism on mucosal surfaces and an opportunistic pathogen. Under certain predisposing conditions, the fungus can overgrow the mucosal microbiome and cause both superficial and life-threatening systemic infections after gaining acces...
