A novel virulence phenotype rapidly assesses <i>Candida</i> fungal pathogenesis in healthy and immunocompromised <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> hosts
2018-07-16
Abstract excerpt
The yeast Candida albicans is an opportunistic pathogen of humans, meaning that despite commensal interactions with its host, it can transition to a harmful pathogen. While C. albicans is the predominant species isolated in the human mycobiome and implicated in fungal infection, infections due to non-albicans Candida species are rapidly rising. Studying the factors that contribute to virulence is often challeng...
