In separate experiments, induction of Ccr1 and its ligands Ccl3, Ccl5, Ccl6, Ccl7, Ccl8 and Ccl9 by invasive candidiasis was examined in greater detail in mice injected with 1.25×105 CFU of C. albicans, which causes ∼80% mortality by day 14 post-infection (Figure 1A). This evidence concerns the gene CCL5 and infection.
