Clinical observations and animal models show that cell-mediated immunity (CMI) is an important host defense mechanism against Candida albicans infections. In HIV-infected patients, a switch from TH1- to TH2-type CMI responses correlates with the progression to AIDS, and may also increase susceptibility to mucosal candidiasis.
临床观察和动物模型表明,细胞介导的免疫(CMI)是宿主抵御白色念珠菌感染的重要防御机制。在HIV感染患者中,从TH1型向TH2型CMI反应的转变与艾滋病的进展相关,也可能增加黏膜念珠菌病的易感性。
