Abstract

Candida albicans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen of humans. It causes a variety of infections ranging from superficial mucocutaneous conditions to severe systemic diseases that result in substantial morbidity and mortality. This pathogen frequently forms biofilms resistant to antifungal drugs and the host immune system, leading to treatment failures. Recent research has demonstrated the potential of nanorobots to penetrate biological barriers and disrupt fungal biofilms. In this perspective paper, we provide a brief overview of recent breakthroughs in nanorobots for candidiasis treatment and discuss current challenges and prospects.
