The interaction between C. albicans and S. aureus. (A)C. albicans can upregulate a range of genes that promote C. albicans to express drug efflux pumps and small molecules that help form network structures in biofilms to resist antibiotics. (B)S. aureus can secrete peptidoglycans to affect the metabolism, morphogenesis, and virulence of C. albicans. (C) Inoculating separately can induce a protective effect on the host, possibly because of the trained immunity induced by β-glucan of C. albicans
