Résumé

Candida albicans, a significant commensal fungus in the human gut, causes a wide spectrum of opportunistic infections. In a recent study, Yang et al. revealed the importance of a host-associated gut signal, GlcNAc, in C. albicans and described its significant role towards achieving a successful commensal-virulence trade-off program in the human body.
