Transcriptional responses of Candida glabrata biofilm cells to fluconazole are modulated by the carbon source

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Candida glabrata is an important human fungal pathogen known to trigger serious infections in immune-compromised individuals. Its ability to form biofilms, which exhibit high tolerance to antifungal treatments, has been considered as an important virulence factor. However, the mechanisms involving antifungal resistance in biofilms and the impact of host niche environments on these processes are still...
