Dysregulated Inflammatory Response toCandida albicansin a C5-Deficient Mouse Strain
22 Sept 2004
Abstract excerpt
Experimental infection of inbred mouse strains with Candida albicans provides a good model system to identify host genetic determinants that regulate onset of, response to, and ultimate outcome of disseminated candidiasis. The A/J mouse strain is exquisitely sensitive to infection with C. albicans, while the C57BL/6J strain is relatively resistant, as measured by survival following intravenous injection of...
