A fungal metabolic regulator underlies infectious synergism during <i>Candida albicans</i> - <i>Staphylococcus</i> aureus intra-abdominal co-infection
2024-02-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus are two commonly associated pathogens that cause nosocomial infections with high morbidity and mortality. Our prior and current work using a murine model of polymicrobial intra-abdominal infection (IAI) uncovered synergistic lethality that was driven by Candida -induced upregulation of functional S. aureus ⍺-toxin leading to polymicrobial sepsis and...
