Growth phase influences virulence in Candidozyma auris systemic infection models

Michael J. McFadden, Juliet A. E. Anku, Faith A. Davis…·Teresa R. O’Meara

This study compares the virulence of Candidozyma auris in different growth phases in mice, finding that log phase causes rapid mortality while stationary phase leads to extended survival.

Non-canonical activation of IRE1a during Candida albicans infection enhances macrophage fungicidal activity

Michael J. McFadden, Mack B. Reynolds, Britton C Michmerhuizen…·Teresa R. O’Meara

This study shows that Candida albicans activates IRE1 in macrophages through non-canonical mechanisms, enhancing fungicidal activity by promoting phagolysosomal fusion.
