Abstract:
Typically found in the skin, Candida albicans can be both commensal and pathogen. In their report, Zhang et al. (2021) address the regulation of C. albicans skin infection by extracellular adenosine triphosphate-a metabolite actively released by the fungus-that potentially modulates cutaneous infection.
