Malassezia sympodialis Mala s 1 allergen is a potential KELCH protein that cross reacts with human skin

This study identifies Mala s 1 as a KELCH-like β-propeller protein in Malassezia sympodialis that cross-reacts with human skin proteins, potentially contributing to immune responses in skin diseases.

Monoclonal antibodies targeting surface exposed epitopes of Candida albicans cell wall proteins confer in vivo protection in an infection model

The paper develops monoclonal antibodies targeting Candida albicans cell wall proteins that show improved survival and fungal burden reduction in mouse models of systemic candidiasis.

Host responses in an ex-vivo human skin model challenged with Malassezia sympodialis

This study examines host responses to Malassezia sympodialis in ex-vivo human skin models with and without oleic acid, finding differential gene expression and cytokine levels.

An analysis of respiratory function and mitochondrial morphology in Candida albicans

This study examines respiratory function and mitochondrial morphology in Candida albicans under various stress conditions and introduces a GFP probe for mitochondrial visualization.

Inhibition of classical and alternative modes of respiration in C. albicans leads to cell wall remodelling and increased macrophage recognition

This paper inhibits respiration in C. albicans using low-toxicity chemicals, leading to cell wall changes and increased macrophage recognition, but also enhancing virulence.
