Interaction Of Candida Albicans With Adherent Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Increases C-Albicans Biofilm Formation And Results In Differential Expression Of Pro- And Anti-Inflammatory Cytokines

Monocytes and macrophages are the cell types most commonly associated with the innate immune response against Candida albicans infection. Interactions between the host immune system and Candida organisms have been investigated for planktonic Candida cells, but no studies have addressed these interactions in a biofilm environment. In this ...更多
