内容説明

Candida, which was discovered more than a century ago as a causative organism of oral thrush, is now thought potentially to infect practically every tissue of the human body. Although we still do not have a safe anti-candida drug, the growing pace of progress of research on Candida albicans holds promise that a breakthrough is imminent. Though many monographs and articles on candida and candidoses have appeared in recent years, they mostly cover the clinical aspects. This particular text, however, explains the more basic features of candida including the molecular genetics, molecular biology and immunology of the cell wall, the molecular basis of morphogenesis and the structure and function of the plasma membrane. The role of anti-candida drugs and their mechanism of action are also discussed. This monograph on oral thrush, infectious disease, fungus, mycota, cell wall and plasma membrane is intended for researchers, mycologists and clinicians.
