Characteristics of biofilm formation by Candida albicans.
A variety of manifestations of Candida albicans infections are associated with the formation of biofilms on the surface of biomaterials. Cells in biofilms display phenotypic traits that are dramatically different from their free-floating planktonic counterparts, such as increased resistance to anti-microbial agents and protection form host defenses. Here, we describe the characteristics of C. a...
متن کاملMalva sylvestris inhibits Candida albicans biofilm formation
M. sylvestris inhibits C. albicans biofilm formation Journal of Herbmed Pharmacology, Volume 6, Number 2, April 2017 http://www.herbmedpharmacol.com 63 increased expression of drug efflux pump genes and metabolic plasticity provide protection by preventing the penetration of host immune factors and antifungals agents into the extracellular matrix in comparison to planktonic cells (3,6-10). The ...
متن کاملPrevention of Candida albicans Biofilm Formation
Biofilm formation is often considered to be the underlying reason why treatment with an antimicrobial agent fails and as an estimated 65-80% of all infections is thought to be biofilm-related, this presents a serious challenge. Considerable attention has been devoted to the development of modified materials that prevent (or at least drastically reduce) microbial biofilm formation. In this revie...
متن کاملInvestigation the expression Candida albicans EFG1 gene in Vaginal Candidiasis and biofilm formation
Candida albicans has the ability to change between yeast and hyphal cells and is known to be a virulence property. Efg1gene of C.albicans is as a main transcription factor that plays pivotal roles in biofilm formation The aim of the current study is to investigate the presence of Efg1 gene in Candida albicans isolates from women with vaginal candidiasis and its impact on biofilm formation.We us...
متن کاملRegulatory Role of Glycerol in Candida albicans Biofilm Formation
UNLABELLED Biofilm formation by Candida albicans on medically implanted devices poses a significant clinical challenge. Here, we compared biofilm-associated gene expression in two clinical C. albicans isolates, SC5314 and WO-1, to identify shared gene regulatory responses that may be functionally relevant. Among the 62 genes most highly expressed in biofilms relative to planktonic (suspension-g...
