Gene expression profiling of RPMI-grown and macrophage-internalized Candida glabrata wild-type, Cgrsc3-aM-bM-^HM-^F and Cgrtt109M-bM-^HM-^F cells.

ABSTRACT: To delineate the interaction of Candida glabrata with host immune cells, we performed genome-wide transcriptional profiling analysis on THP-1 macrophage-internalized wild-type and chromatin remodeling defective mutant (Cgrsc3-aM-bM-^HM-^F and Cgrtt109M-bM-^HM-^F) yeasts. Genes implicated in ergosterol biosynthesis, and high-affinity iron uptake and homeostasis were found to be down-regulated in C. glabrata wild-type and mutant cells upon macrophage internalization. Additionally, global gene expression profiles of RPMI-grown and macrophage-ingested Cgrsc3-aM-bM-^HM-^F and Cgrtt109M-bM-^HM-^F cells revealed down-regulation of genes involved in mitochondrial respiration under normal growth conditions and induction of genes required for generation of precursors of metabolites and energy upo
