Arancia S, Sandini S, Cassone A, De Bernardis F
Mol Cell Probes . 2009 Apr; 23(5):218-26. PMID: 19393314
We have developed PCR and Multiplex PCR assays for the detection of medically important Candida spp. using different species and genus-specific PCR primers selected within the MP65 gene, a recently...

Cassone A, De Bernardis F, Torososantucci A
Curr Mol Med . 2005 Jun; 5(4):377-82. PMID: 15977993
The role played by antibodies (Abs) in the anticandidal defense has long been a matter of controversy, mostly due to the past inability to clearly define antigen specificity, the relationship...

Arancia S, Sandini S, Cassone A, De Bernardis F, La Valle R
Mol Cell Probes . 2004 May; 18(3):171-5. PMID: 15135451
A method for detection of Candida albicans in biological samples (blood, serum, urine) was developed by the use of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of a DNA fragment of a...

Oggioni M, Beninati C, Boccanera M, Medaglini D, Spinosa M, Maggi T, et al.
Int Rev Immunol . 2002 Mar; 20(2):275-87. PMID: 11878770
The gram-positive bacterium Streptococcus gordonii was engineered to express the microbicidal molecule H6, which is an antiidiotypic single chain antibody mimicking a yeast killer toxin. S. gordonii is a human...

De Bernardis F, Sullivan P, Cassone A
Med Mycol . 2001 Sep; 39(4):303-13. PMID: 11556759
Among the putative virulence factors of Candida albicans, secreted aspartic proteinases (Sap, encoded by a family of at least nine genes) continue to attract the attention of many investigators studying...
6.
Beninati C, Oggioni M, Boccanera M, Spinosa M, Maggi T, Conti S, et al.
Nat Biotechnol . 2000 Oct; 18(10):1060-4. PMID: 11017043
Two recombinant strains of Streptococcus gordonii, secreting or displaying a microbicidal single-chain antibody (H6), and stably colonizing rat vagina, were used to treat an experimental vaginitis caused by Candida albicans....

De Bernardis F, Santoni G, Boccanera M, Spreghini E, Adriani D, Morelli L, et al.
Infect Immun . 2000 May; 68(6):3297-304. PMID: 10816477
Humoral (antibody [Ab]) and cellular Candida-specific immune responses in the vaginas of pseudoestrus rats were investigated during three successive infections by Candida albicans. After the first, protective infection, Abs against...

Stringaro A, Crateri P, Adriani D, Arancia G, Cassone A, Calderone R, et al.
Mycopathologia . 1999 Oct; 144(3):147-52. PMID: 10531681
The expression of the Candida albicans complement-binding C3d protein (MP60) was investigated both in vitro and in vivo by immunogold labelling and electron microscopy. In vivo expression was determined in...

De Bernardis F, Mondello F, San Millan R, Ponton J, Cassone A
J Clin Microbiol . 1999 Oct; 37(11):3481-6. PMID: 10523538
The biotype and virulence of skin isolates of Candida parapsilosis were compared with blood isolates of the same fungus. Morphotype, resistotype, and electrophoretic karyotype determinations did not reveal any special...

Calera J, Zhao X, De Bernardis F, Sheridan M, Calderone R
Infect Immun . 1999 Jul; 67(8):4280-4. PMID: 10417206
Deletion of both alleles of the Candida albicans CaHK1 gene, which causes cells to flocculate when grown at pH 7.5, a pH comparable to that of mammalian blood, abolishes the...
