Growth of Candida albicans in dexamethasone-supplemented media.

M Ghannoum, G Burns, K Abu Elteen.   

Abstract

Candida albicans grown in dexamethasone (DXM) shows an apparent increase in dry weight. This increase, however, represents an artefact due to entrapment and incorporation of DXM by the yeast. Thus opportunistic infections by C. albicans which are promoted by DXM must be due entirely to effects other than growth enhancement of the organism.
