EGR1 regulates oral epithelial cell responses to Candida albicans via the EGFR- ERK1/2 pathway
5 Dec 2024
Abstract excerpt
Candida albicans is a fungal pathobiont colonizing mucosal surfaces of the human body, including the oral cavity. Under certain predisposing conditions, C. albicans invades mucosal tissues activating EGFR-MAPK signalling pathways in epithelial cells via the action of its peptide toxin candidalysin. However, our knowledge of the epithelial mechanisms involved during C. albicans colonization is rudimentary. Here,...
