Background Candida auris (C. auris) is a fungal pathogen that recently emerged and rapidly spread around the globe. It is now in California with 74 clinical cases according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (August 31, 2020). C. auris can cause invasive disease with high ...
In some of cases, C. auris was found on the skin of people; in epidemiological terms, they were “colonized.” In that state, the fungus isn’t causing disease, but people who are colonized can spread the fungus to other patients and may eventually go on to have active infections them...
CDC Updates Guidance as SAN DIEGO — The number of cases ofCandida aurisis on the rise in American healthcare facilities, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is asking laboratories to determine the species when a result forCandidais positive andC. aurisis suspected. C. a...
"Local and state health departments and CDC should be notified of possible cases of C auris and of isolates of C haemulonii and Candida spp that cannot be identified after routine testing," the MMWR article states. According to the MMWR report, with first author Snigdha Vallabhaneni, MD, of...

Candida auris has become a serious threat to public health. The mechanisms of how this fungal pathogen adapts to the mammalian host are poorly understood. Here we report the rapid evolution of an adaptive C. auris multicellular aggregative morphology in

In some cases, DRAQ7+ macrophage nuclei were not associated with CFW-stained hyphae. This could represent low-level macrophage cell death unrelated to infection (generally <10% of the population). By 4 h, the number of new CFW-stained hyphae increased and then by 6 h they further increased...
The rise in antimicrobial resistance has become a major threat to public health1. Although the focus has primarily been on pan-resistant bacteria, there is growing concern over the multidrug-resistant fungal pathogen,Candida auris. This emerging pathogen has galvanized researchers, health care workers...
cases might be serious or life-threatening to individuals [4]. Every year, invasive fungal infections kill over a million people around the world [5]. Human fungal diseases are also a major cause of socio-economic burden. So far, several billion dollars have been utilized in combatting fungal...
