Abstract
Immunoglobulin G, immunoglobulin A, transferrin, and fibrinogen were measured by radial immunodiffusion in plasma samples from burned versus unburned mice challenged with high-virulence Candida albicans MY 1044 or its low-virulence mutant, MY 1049. Early decreases in these proteins were found after burn and/or MY 1044 but not MY 1049 challenge. These decreases may contribute to increased susceptibility of mice that were burned and challenged by MY 1044 to lethal candidiasis.Entities:
