T3 |
261-461 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Although the C. albicans Als3 invasin is critical for invasion and damage of endothelial cells in vitro, a C. albicans als3Δ/Δ mutant has normal virulence in the mouse model of disseminated infection. |

T4 |
462-584 |
Sentence |
denotes |
We hypothesized that the contribution of Als3 to virulence is obscured by the presence of additional C. albicans invasins. |

T5 |
585-765 |
Sentence |
denotes |
To elucidate the in vivo function of Als3, we heterologously expressed C. albicans ALS3 in Candida glabrata, a yeast that lacks a close ALS3 ortholog and has low virulence in mice. |

T6 |
766-1039 |
Sentence |
denotes |
We found that following intravenous inoculation into mice, the ALS3-expressing strain preferentially trafficked to the brain, where it induced significantly elevated levels of myeloperoxidase, tumor necrosis factor, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, and gamma interferon. |
