Non-Serum-Dependent Chemotactic Factors Produced by Candida albicans Stimulate Chemotaxis by Binding to the Formyl Peptide Receptor on Neutrophils and to an Unknown Receptor on Macrophages

Serum-free culture filtrates of six Candida species and Saccharomyces cerevisiae were found to contain chemoattractants for human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) and a mouse macrophage-like cell line, J774. The chemotactic factors differed for the PMN and J774 cells, however, in terms of heat st...
