Filamentous growth is a general feature of Candida auris clinical isolates

Shuru Fan et al.

Summary: Pathogenic Candida species, such as Candida auris, demonstrate morphological plasticity that contributes to environmental adaptation and host infection. Clinical isolates of C. auris exhibit diverse colony and cellular morphologies, including yeast, filamentous, aggregated, and elongated forms. These morphological variations are associated with different antifungal resistance and virulence properties in different cell types of C. auris.

Clade-specific chromosomal rearrangements and loss of subtelomeric adhesins in Candida auris

Jose F. Munoz et al.

Summary: Candida auris has four major clades with different infection characteristics and drug resistance profiles. While Clade II primarily causes ear infections and is susceptible to antifungal drugs, Clades I, III, and IV are responsible for ongoing outbreaks of invasive and multidrug-resistant infections.

Candida auris: Epidemiology, Diagnosis, Pathogenesis, Antifungal Susceptibility, and Infection Control Measures to Combat the Spread of Infections in Healthcare Facilities

Suhail Ahmad et al.

Summary: Candida auris is a recently recognized yeast that is often multidrug-resistant and has become a significant fungal pathogen in healthcare facilities due to its ability to cause invasive infections and outbreaks. Its resistance to cleaning procedures and ability to easily contaminate the environment have led to major outbreaks in many countries.

LncRNA DINOR is a virulence factor and global regulator of stress responses in Candida auris

Jiaxin Gao et al.

Summary: This study identified a mutant strain of Candida auris with disrupted long non-coding RNA, DINOR, which plays a role in stress response, morphogenesis, DNA damage, and replication. The upregulation of DINOR is induced by DNA-alkylating agents and exposure to various stressors, indicating its involvement in maintaining genome integrity and orchestrating multiple stress responses. Additionally, genetic interaction studies revealed links between DINOR function and TOR signaling pathway, providing potential insights for therapeutic development against C. auris.

Genomic epidemiology of Candida auris in a general hospital in Shenyang, China: a three-year surveillance study

Sufei Tian et al.

Summary: This study investigated the microbiological characteristics and antifungal susceptibility of Candida auris isolates collected in Shenyang from 2016 to 2018. The findings revealed that the isolates mainly originated from ICU wards and showed fluconazole resistance due to mutations in the drug resistance gene ERG11. The study provides important insights into the origin of C. auris in Shenyang and contributes to the understanding of its epidemiological characteristics worldwide.
