<i>Candida albicans</i> commensalism in the oral mucosa is favoured by limited virulence and metabolic adaptation

2021-10-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> As part of the human microbiota, the fungus Candida albicans colonizes the oral cavity and other mucosal surfaces of the human body. Commensalism is tightly controlled by complex interactions of the fungus and the host to preclude fungal elimination but also fungal overgrowth and invasion, which can result in disease. As such, defects in antifungal T cell immunity render individuals susceptible...
