Trapping and killing of Candida albicans by Corynebacterium parvum-activated livers.

Infection and Immunity
R T SawyerE S Beneke

Abstract

Corynebacterium parvum vaccination significantly increased the number of leukocytes adherent to hepatic vessels. Perfused C. parvum-treated livers killed significantly more Candida albicans than did livers not treated with C. parvum, an effect reversed by the macrophage inhibitors silica, phenylbutazone, and iodoacetate.
