| Disease Introduction Mechanism | C. albicans accounts for the most frequently isolated pathogen of candidemia, which causes approxi- mately 40% mortality despite antifungal treatment. Moreover, candidemia is a major challenge for healthcare as difficult diagnosis and therapy. For- tunately, as technical development, single-cell RNA- sequencing (scRNA-seq) has been widely used to gen- erate new scientific insights in various fields. Thus, efforts to analyze genomic transcripts of PBMCs stimulated with C. albicans based on single-cell levels will build a foundation for developing novel thera- peutic targets and potential genes with the most rel- evant for C. albicans infection to improve the clinical outcomes of candidemia. |
