Tetracycline Effects on Candida Albicans Virulence Factors
OBJECT To determine if tetracycline, previously reported to increase the probability of developing symptomatic vaginal yeast infections, has a direct effect on Candida albicans growth or induction of virulent phenotypes. METHOD In vitro, clinical isolates of yeast were cultivated with sublethal concentrations of tetracycline and yeast cell counts, hyphal formation, drug efflux pump activity, ...
متن کاملAntimicrobial photodynamic inactivation inhibits Candida albicans virulence factors and reduces in vivo pathogenicity.
The objective of this study was to evaluate whether Candida albicans exhibits altered pathogenicity characteristics following sublethal antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation (APDI) and if such alterations are maintained in the daughter cells. C. albicans was exposed to sublethal APDI by using methylene blue (MB) as a photosensitizer (0.05 mM) combined with a GaAlAs diode laser (λ 660 nm, 75 m...
متن کاملEnterococcus faecalis inhibits hyphal morphogenesis and virulence of Candida albicans.
The Gram-positive bacterium Enterococcus faecalis and the fungus Candida albicans are both found as commensals in many of the same niches of the human body, such as the oral cavity and gastrointestinal (GI) tract. However, both are opportunistic pathogens and have frequently been found to be coconstituents of polymicrobial infections. Despite these features in common, there has been little inve...
متن کاملVirulence factors of non-Candida albicans Candida species
Candidosis caused by non-Candida albicans Candida (NCAC) species have been increased in recent years, namely due Candida glabrata, Candida tropicalis and Candida parapsilosis. Furthermore, candidosis is facilitated by a number of virulence factors, such as adherence to medical devices and/or host cells, biofilm formation and secretion of enzymes. Thus, the main goal of this study was to charact...
متن کاملCandida albicans and virulence factors that increases its pathogenicity
Candida albicans are yeasts frequently human commensal and it is the main cause of different forms of oral, superficial or systemic candidiasis. The transformation from a harmless commensal to a virulent pathogen under the conditions of a dysfunctional host defense system is attributable to an extensive repertoire of selectively expressed virulence determinants. Several virulence factors contri...
