Adhesion of Candida albicans to epithelial cells - effect of nikkomycin

This study investigated the effect of the chitin synthetase inhibitors, the nikkomycins (NZ and NZ + NX), on Candida albicans adhesion to buccal epithelial cells (BECs) in vitro. The effect was expressed in reduced chitin synthetase activity and chitin content of fungal cells. In vitro adhesion assa...
