Candida albicans Is Not Always the Preferential Yeast Colonizing Humans: A Study in Wayampi Amerindians

31 Jul 2013

Abstract excerpt

In industrialized countries Candida albicans is considered the predominant commensal yeast of the human intestine, with approximately 40% prevalence in healthy adults. We discovered a highly original colonization pattern that challenges this current perception by studying in a 4- year interval a cohort of 151 Amerindians living in a remote community (French Guiana), and animals from their environment. The...
