چکیده مقاله:

Background: Candida albicans is one of the most important opportunistic pathogens that suppress immunologic mechanisms of the host. It is speculated that structural and secretory proteins of C. albicans have immunomodulatory effects in cancer. Objective: To evaluate the effects of C. albicans structural and secreted proteins on intratumoral CD4/CD8 ratio as well as the survival rate in BALB/c tumor model. Methods: Structural and secretory proteins from C. albicans were isolated and examined for their effects on tumor growth and survival of adenocarcinoma bearing mice. Results: The results indicated that in mice treated with C. albicans structural protein, the survival rate significantly decreased compared with the control groups. Also, mice treated with secretory proteins showed a decrease in survival rate but it was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Investigating the frequency of tumor infiltrated CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes indicated that the percentages of tumor infiltrated CD4+ T lymphocytes in response to structural and secreted proteins were higher compared to the control groups. Conclusion: Our study suggests that C. albicans structural and secreted proteins modulate intratumor T lymphocyte infiltration.

Secreted proteins of Candida albicans.

The predicted secretome of the opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida albicans contains more than 200 ORFs of diverse and often unknown function. Majority of the secreted proteins that have been experimentally evaluated to date are hydrolytic enzymes (proteinases, phospholipases and lipases). Acting on the interface between the pathogen and the host, the secreted hydrolases may enable invasion o...

Inhibition of IL-17A in Tumor Microenvironment Augments Cytotoxicity of Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes in Tumor-Bearing Mice

It remains controversial whether IL-17A promotes or inhibits cancer progression. We hypothesized that IL-17A that is locally produced in the tumor microenvironment has an important role in angiogenesis and tumor immunity. We investigated the effect of inhibiting IL-17A at tumor sites on tumor growth and on local and systemic anti-tumor immunity. MC38 or B16 cells were inoculated subcutaneously ...

Hepatocellular apoptosis during Candida albicans colonization: involvement of TNF-alpha and infiltrating Fas-L positive lymphocytes.

The liver constitutes the first barrier in the control of hematogenous dissemination of Candida albicans of intestinal origin. In rats infected with C. albicans, this organ limits the growth of the yeast and mounts an efficient inflammatory reaction. However, in rats infected and exposed to chronic varied stress, the hepatic inflammatory reaction is compromised and the outcoming of the infectio...
