Here, we show that Dectin-1 is essential for driving fungal-specific CD4+ T-cell responses in the GI tract. Loss of Dectin-1 resulted in abrogated dendritic cell responses in the mesenteric lymph nodes (mLNs) and defective T-cell co-stimulation, causing substantial increases in CD4+ T-cell...

Most of the yeast infections (59%) occurred in patients with underlying gastrointestinal disease. Prior studies suggested that patients receivingenteral nutritionmight become ill from translocation of the yeast from the inflamed GI tract. If there were positive cultures for yeast from sites other than ...
Moreover, BDG assay represents a valuable adjunctive tool to distinguish between colonization and infection.[43,48] P. jirovecii can colonize the respiratory tract without causing pneumonia. A positive PCR in respiratory specimens without signs and symptoms of infection should be considered as a ...
GI tract. Loss of Dectin-1 resulted in abrogated dendritic cell responses in the mesenteric lymph nodes (mLNs) and defective T-cell co-stimulation, causing substantial increases in CD4+T-cell apoptosis and reductions in the cellularity of GI-associated lymphoid tissues. CD8+T-cell responses were...

Susceptibility to invasive infection has been correlated with relative overgrowth of fungi, especially within the GI tract [8–10], as well as the presence of several predisposing clinical factors including a naïve immune system, bacterial dysbiosis due to antibiotic exposure, and ...
Fungal infection of the oral cavity 来自 ResearchGate 喜欢 0 阅读量: 33 作者: DJ Zegarelli 摘要: Although several strains of Candida can infect the oral mucosa, the most commonly encountered oral fungal infection is Candida albicans, which may be highly infective because of its greater level of...
A fascinating, yet concerning, finding is that an approach to addressing refractory Clostridioides difficile infection, using fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), is negatively impacted by Candida colonization of the GI tract (Galloway-Pena and Kontoyiannis, 2020). This is attributed to the ...
