Antigenic variability between Candida albicans blastospores isolated from healthy subjects and patients with Candida infection.

Blastospores of 10 strains of C. albicans isolated from patients were compared with 10 strains from healthy subjects for their ability to detect antibodies by indirect immunofluorescence, with sera from the same patients and healthy subjects. Strains from patients were significantly more reactive with sera from patients than were strains from healthy individuals, but both groups of strains were equally reactive with sera from healthy subjects. These preliminary results indicate that the antigenic structure of C. albicans is not stable: there may be blastospore antigens that are qualitatively or quantitatively variable with the pathogenic behaviour of strains in vivo.

Candida laryngitis in chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis. Its association with Candida esophagitis.

Four patients with chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis (CMC) underwent esophagoscopy and microlaryngoscopy. Cultures were obtained by biopsy of the larynx and the esophagus. Three of the four patients with laryngeal disease proven by laryngoscopy and culture also had extensive esophageal disease. One patient with a normal larynx by examination and culture also had a normal esophagus. There appears to be a good correlation between the presence of laryngeal and esophageal disease.
