Candida albicans activates Staphylococcus aureus virulence regulatory systems to drive toxin-mediated human cell death
Co-infection with Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans leads to worsened disease severity compared to mono-microbial infection. Because our understanding of the mechanisms driving enhanced disease severity during co-infection is incomplete, we sought to evaluate how interactions with C. albicans regulate S. aureu...
