Photoinactivation of catalase sensitizes Candida albicans and Candida auris to ROS-producing agents and immune cells

P.-T. Dong, Y. Zhan, S. Jusuf, J. Hui, Z. Dagher, M. K. Mansour, J.-X. Cheng

This study shows that photoinactivating catalase in fungi makes them more susceptible to ROS and immune cells, offering a new approach to treat drug-resistant fungal infections.

Photoinactivation of Catalase Sensitizes Wide-Ranging Bacteria to ROS-Producing Agents and Immune Cells

P.-T. Dong, S. Jusuf, J. Hui, Y. Zhan, Y. Zhu, G. Y. Liu, J.-X. Cheng

This study shows that blue light inactivates catalase in bacteria, making them vulnerable to ROS and immune cells, and validates this in a mouse model.
