25 Jun 2012
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Indole is a signalling molecule, produced by a number of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria both in nature as well as clinical environments. Here, we explored the effect of bacterial indole and one of its main derivatives on the virulence of the fungal pathogen Candida albicans. METHODS AND RESULTS: We found that indole and its derivate indole-3-acetonitrile (IAN) did not affect the viability of C....
