The pore-forming toxin Candidalysin dampens the autophagy-related plasma membrane stress response during Candida albicans invasion of epithelial cells.
Key Points
Candidalysin reduces the autophagy-related stress response during Candida albicans invasion.
Key evidence shows that candidalysin significantly dampens membrane stress response.
Observational analysis reveals the interaction between candidalysin and epithelial cells during invasion.
This study highlights the important role of autophagy in defending against fungal invasion, needing further exploration.
