As temperatures rise, disease-causing fungi may adapt and spread, potentially fostering #AntimicrobialResistance. @CDCgov scientists delve into these health impacts in a new paper from @PLOSPathogens: bit.ly/3VdH4zg

Delighted to share our latest review! @TrendsMicrobiol From the nutritional environment, through metabolic pathways to changes in acylome dynamics, SCFAs influence the growth, metabolism, and virulence of C. albicans. But how? doi.org/10.1016/j.tim.2024.0… @TravenLab @_doctormeg
