Cell wall N-glycan of Candida albicans ameliorates early hyper- and late hypo-immunoreactivity in sepsis
Kawakita et al use a murine sepsis model to show that N-glycan from pathogenic C. albicans ameliorates sepsis - and thus improves survival - through upregulation of the cytokine IL-10. This study demonstrates a potential strategy in which the immunosuppressive mechanism of one pathogen can be applie...
