Interplay between cAMP and Calcium signaling pathways in regulating Candida albicans virulent responses

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This publication examines the intricate signaling pathways within Candida albicans, focusing on the cAMP pathway and calcium signaling mechanisms that regulate morphogenesis, virulence, and responses to environmental stressors. It highlights how these pathways integrate various external signals—such as glucose, CO2, serum, and calcium ions—leading to activation of key proteins that influence yeast-hypha transitions and cell wall biogenesis. By understanding these signaling networks, researchers can gain insights into pathogenicity mechanisms that may inform therapeutic strategies against candidiasis.
