In this study of Candida albicans biofilm-associated peri-prosthetic joint, Candida albicans infection model in mice was constructed, using titanium-nickel wire, commonly used to simulate joint implants. This PJI model is easy to operate, has a high success rate, and is clinically relevant. It will help understanding the prevention and treatment of Candida albicans biofilm-related PJI.
Traditional animal models cannot accurately simulate the actual situation of PJI, due to the complex environment surrounding the processes. Candida albicans biofilm-related mouse PJI model, can address the research gap. The establishment of PJI animal model is very important for the research and the development of new drugs or therapeutics for PJI.
The Candida albicans biofilm-associated mouse PJI model established in this paper is expected to be an important model for the prevention and treatment of Candida albicans biofilm-associated PJI.
