(A) Gene expression analysis untreated and PA-treated of C. tropicalis at 200 μg mL⁻¹ after 48 h. Effect of PA on the differential expression of ERG11, TUP1, NRG1, HWP1, UME6 and EFG1 using qPCR. The values are expressed as means and error bars indicate standard deviation. (B) Molecular Mechanisms of PA at 200 μg mL⁻¹ after 48 h inhibiting specific virulence factors of C. albicans such as mature biofilm, ergosterol, lipase, protease and cell surface hydrophobicity but induced hyphal formation.
