A condition in which Candida albicans, a type of yeast, grows out of control in moist skin areas of the body. It is usually a result of a weakened immune system, but can be a side effect of chemotherapy or treatment with antibiotics. Thrush usually affects the mouth (oral thrush); however, rarely, it spreads throughout the entire body.

  • Candida infected Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells

    Homo sapiens Homo sapiens | RNA Expression   RNA Expression

    Using oligonucleotide microarray analysis, we identified 56 genes that were transcriptionally up-regulated and 69 that were suppressed upon exposure of endothelial cells to C. albicans. Among the regulated genes those attributed to the categories ‘chemotaxis’, ‘signaling’, and ‘transcription and tra…

    Mice used were B6/129 F2's, 3-5 weeks of age, either wild type or with both copies of the autoimmune regulator gene (aire, GenBank #AF079536) disrupted. Thymi from five of these mice of both sexes were removed and pooled. After collagenase/dispase digestion, density gradient fractionation, and fluo…
