Essential role of Hepcidin in host resistance to disseminated candidiasis

2024-10-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Candida albicans is a leading cause of life-threatening invasive infections with up to 40% mortality rates in hospitalized individuals despite antifungal therapy. Patients with chronic liver disease are at an increased risk of candidemia, but the mechanisms underlying this susceptibility are incompletely defined. One consequence of chronic liver disease is attenuated ability to produce hepcidin a...
