Fig 6. The invasive strains of Candida auris resulted in greater weight loss than the non-invasive strain and Candida glabrata despite of lower mortality rate compared with Candida albicans.

(A, B) The survival rates (A) and body weight changes (B) of mice inoculated with the invasive strain of C. auris AR0382, the non-invasive strain JCM 15448, the reference strain of C. albicans SC5314, and the reference strain of C. glabrata CBS 138 are shown. Body weight change results are expressed as mean ± standard error of the mean from three independent experiments including 16 C. auris–infected mice and 10 C. albicans of C. glabrata–infected mice. * P < 0.05, *** P < 0.001, **** P < 0.0001.
