Secretory Aspartyl Proteinases Cause Vaginitis and Can Mediate Vaginitis Caused by <named-content content-type="genus-species">Candida albicans</named-content> in Mice
ABSTRACT Vaginal inflammation (vaginitis) is the most common disease caused by the human-pathogenic fungus Candida albicans. Secretory aspartyl proteinases (Sap) are major virulence traits of C. albicans that have been suggested to play a role in vaginitis. To dissect the mechanisms by which Sap pla...
