Micafungin Enhances Neutrophil Fungicidal Functions against Candida Pseudohyphae

We evaluated the effect of the combination of micafungin and polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) against hyphae of Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis. Micafungin enhanced the PMN oxidative burst dose dependently. The combination was synergistic (C. albicans) or additive (C. dubliniensis); when...
