The aim of the present study was to clarify whether mycelial formation of Candida albicans was induced by bacterial cells of Streptococcu salivarius alone or by the joint effects of the bacterial cells and substances in the medium. Yeast cells of C. albicans were cultured in medium containing heat-killed S. salivarius bacteria or a heat extract of S. salivarius cells. The formation of mycelia of C. albicans was induced by medium containing intact S. salivarius cells or the bacterial extract in microwells. The mycelial formation of C. albicans needed both cell components of S. salivarius and proline in the medium. These findings indicate that the S. salivarius cells contain a substance that induces mycelial formation of C. albicans in a medium containing proline.
