The macrophage-derived protein PTMA induces filamentation of the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans
Summary: Evasion of killing by immune cells is crucial for fungal survival in the host. For the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans, internalization by macrophages induces a transition from yeast to filaments that promotes macrophage death and fungal escape. Nutrient deprivation, alkaline pH, and...
