Candida albicans induces selective development of macrophages and monocyte derived dendritic cells by a TLR2 dependent signalling.

As TLRs are expressed by haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), these receptors may play a role in haematopoiesis in response to pathogens during infection. We have previously demonstrated that in in vitro defined conditions inactivated yeasts and hyphae of Candida albicans induce HSPCs p...
