Candida auris escapes innate immunity through metabolic reprogramming

A team of scientists from Australia and Israel demonstrates that Candida auris, a fungus associated with life-threatening and drug-resistant infections, escapes the host's innate immune response by destroying macrophages through metabolic reprogramming. The fungus is also capable of escaping antimicrobial inflammatory response.
