“…Therefore, strategies for the development of action protocols have been suggested, not only for donors but also for patients on waiting list. 3 Regarding tissue donors, a case of C. auris candidemia after bone marrow transplantation has been described, 4 but no report on solid tissues was found.…”

Candida auris is multidrug-resistant yeast with higher transmissibility than other Candida species, which has the ability to grow in high salinity and high temperature environments, and with severe outcomes. 1 For these reasons, since its first detection in 2009 in Japan, it has raised special interest in healthcare facilities. Nowadays, C. auris shows a worldwide dissemination, despite the difficulties to identify it when common laboratory techniques (based on biochemical characteristics) are used. 1

Depletion of the Microbiota Has a Modest but Important Impact on the Fungal Burden of the Heart and Lungs during Early Systemic Candida auris Infection in Neutropenic Mice

The progression and systemic pathobiology of C. auris in the absence of a microbiota have not been described. Here, we describe the influence of the microbiota during the first 5 days of C. auris infection in germ-free or antibiotic-depleted mice. Depletion of the bacterial microbiota in both germ-free and antibiotic-depleted models results in a modest but important increase in the early stages of C. auris infection. Particularly the heart and lungs, followed by the cecum, uterus, and stomach, of intravenously (i.v.) infected neutropenic mice showed significant fungal organ burden. Understanding disease progression and pathobiology of C. auris in individuals with a depleted microbiota could potentially help in the development of care protocols that incorporate supplementation or restoration of the microbiota before invasive procedures, such as transplantation surgeries.
