Abstract

Buccal epithelial cells (BEC) from 12 patients with diabetes mellitus and 12 age- and sex-matched non-diabetic subjects were tested in vitro for adhesion of Candida albicans following exposure to nystatin both in vitro and in vivo. Adhesion was significantly reduced (P < 0.002) to cells from both the diabetic and non-diabetic subjects after in vitro exposure to nystatin, but the reduction in adhesion was variable (5.0-50.7% in control subjects and 0.5-48.4% in diabetic subjects) and equivalent between the two groups. In vivo exposure to nystatin produced no overall significant reduction in candidal adhesion to cells from either diabetic or control subjects.

Candidiasis

Candidiasis is a common fungal infection caused by Candida and it can affect many parts for the body including mucosal membranes as well as the gastrointestinal, urinary, and respiratory tracts. Here is the latest research.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.
