Confocal imaging of amyloid patches on aggregated C. albicans Day 286. These are activated in a cell adhesion assay and stained with thioflavin T, 100 nM. (a) and (d) aggregated cells. (b) Fluorescence was enhanced after incubation with an amyloid-promoting peptide from Als5p. (c) Anti-amyloid V326N peptide inhibits aggregation and extinguishes fluorescence [13]. (d) Regions of enhanced fluorescence are marked where cells are tightly apposed. Bars represent 8 μm. Reprinted with permission from Garcia et al. [13].
