Abstract

We present the case of an infertile patient, whose first attempt at IVF had to be postponed for 18 months due to a vulvovaginal yeast infection refractory to treatment. The main causative organism was a Candida glabrata strain resistant to all the imidazolic agents tested. The organism and the host's humoral status were studied in depth, looking for possible causes of the refractoriness to treatment.

Abstract

Two modifications that simplify and shorten a method for adsorption of the antibodies against the antigens expressed on both blastospore and germ tube cell wall surfaces (methods 2 and 3) were compared with the original method of adsorption (method 1) to detect anti-Candida albicans germ tube antibodies in 154 serum specimens. Adsorption of the sera by both modified methods resulted in titers very similar to those obtained by the original method. Only 5.2% of serum specimens tested by method 2 and 5.8% of serum specimens tested by method 3 presented greater than one dilution discrepancies in the titers with respect to the titer observed by method 1. When a test based on method 2 was evaluated with sera from patients with invasive candidiasis, the best discriminatory results (sensitivity, 84.6%; specificity, 87.9%; positive predictive value, 75.9%; negative predictive value, 92.7%; efficiency, 86.9%) were obtained when a titer of > or = 1:160 was considered positive.

Abstract

Anti-Candida albicans germ tube antibodies can be induced in rabbits immunized with different C. albicans extracts. Antigens responsible for the induction of those antibodies have molecular weights of approximately 230–250, 62, 43 and 41 kDa. These antigens are present in the cell wall of both C. albicans morphological forms, although their location seems to be different.

Abstract

Salivary secretory IgA (sIgA) has been shown to react with a group of heat shock mannoproteins preferentially expressed on yeast cells grown at 37 degrees C. Since at this temperature C. albicans can induce germ tubes, we explored the role of germ tube induction on human salivary sIgA reactivity in both germinative and agerminative C. albicans strains, in an attempt to investigate whether the germ tube expressed the heat shock mannoproteins reactive with sIgA. The reactivity with sIgA of the agerminative strain, grown at 25 and 37 degrees C for different times, was measured spectrofluorometrically and was fairly constant with time. Yeast cells grown at 37 degrees C tended to be more reactive than those grown at 25 degrees C. In contrast, when compared with the yeast cells of the germinative strain grown at 25 degrees C, there was a statistically significant decrease in reactivity with sIgA during germ tube formation. Serum IgA and IgG did not show statistically significant changes in reactivity with C. albicans during germination, suggesting differences in reactivity with C. albicans cell wall antigens between mucosal and systemic humoral responses. Cell wall mannoproteins of molecular masses60 kDa were characterized by Western blotting as responsible for the decrease in sIgA reactivity observed in the germ tube, and the fall in sIgA reactivity was related to the release of cell wall mannoproteins into the culture medium. The release of these mannoproteins may be a mechanism whereby C. albicans avoids the action of sIgA, and it may play an important role in the post-parasite relationship in oral candidiasis.
