• 要約等: <p>Neuroinflammation induced by microglial activation has recently attracted attention as a cause of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). <i>Candida albicans</i> is a prevalent fungal species in human microbiota, and suspected of causing AD through neuroinflammation, as <i>C. albicans</i> has been detected in the brain tissue of AD patients, and the intravenous injection of <i>C. albicans</i> induced mild memory impairment, accompanied by <i>C. albicans</i> invasion of the brain and neuroinflammation in mice. However, the detailed mechanism by which <i>C. albicans</i> induces neuroinflammation remains unclear. In this study, we showed that candidalysin, a cytolytic peptide toxin secreted by <i>C. albicans</i>, induces the production of the inflammatory cytokine IL-6 accompanied by nuclear translocation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) through the degradation of inhibitor of κBα (IκBα) in the human microglial cell line HMC3. We also found that candidalysin induced autophagy, and that an autophagy inhibitor suppressed candidalysin-induced IκBα degradation, nuclear translocation of NF-κB, and IL-6 mRNA expression. These findings suggest that candidalysin triggers autophagy, which induces inflammatory responses via NF-κB in human microglia. Thus, the present study may have uncovered an important pathway for neuroinflammation via microglia when <i>C. albicans</i> invades the brain.</p>
