Human Epithelial Cells Discriminate between Commensal and Pathogenic Interactions with Candida albicans.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2016

Rast Timothy J, Kullas Amy L, Southern Peter J, Davis Dana A

Abstract excerpt

The commensal fungus, Candida albicans, can cause life-threatening infections in at risk individuals. C. albicans colonizes mucosal surfaces of most people, adhering to and interacting with epithelial cells. At low concentrations, C. albicans is not pathogenic nor does it cause epithelial cell damage in vitro; at high concentrations, C. albicans causes mucosal infections and kills epithelial cells in vitro.
