Immunological responses to Candida albicans II. Amyloidosis in mice induced by candidiasis.
Candida albicans infection in the mouse thigh rapidly induces amyloidosis in mice of the C57BL/Ks strain; amyloid is induced more slowly and to a lesser extent by viable candida in C3H and AKR mice, and by both viable Saccharomyces cerevisiae and heat-killed C. albicans in C57BL/Ks mice.
