Candida's quorum sensing, farsenol, and Addison's disease

Microbes talk to each other by secreting compounds to each other.  These compounds have the ability to interfere with the host within whom the infection lives.  Candida secretes farnesol which is known to inhibit P450 enzymes.  This could explain the correlation of addison's disease and candida infections.

Polyglandular Autoimmune syndrome type one strongly associated with candida infections

Addison's disease has antibodies to 21-hydroxylase

21-hydroxylase is a p450 enzyme

Farnesol is a quorum haulting Candida growth and is secreted by candida

Lymphocytic colitis and polyglandular syndrome one in a patient
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=microscopic+colitis+polyglandular

Lymphocytic colitis is associated with Candida
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23314667

Polyglandular syndrome type two, more commonly found in adults has a strong association with 21-hydroxylase antibodies but not candida?

Could type 2 be different types of fungal infections that also use farnesol for quorum? Is it saccharomyces in the GI tract or candida in the vagina?

The idopathic addison's is associated with PAII
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2333733

adult idopathic addison's major antibody is 21-hydroxylase

Microscopic colitis, addison's, and skin pigmentation

Patient with ?ulcerative colitis?, vitilgo, addison's (vitilgo is a  hypopigmentation skin disease)

Hyperpigmentation and PAII
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25148815

Hypopigmentation is caused by malassezia (tinea vesicolor)

Microscopic colitis in woman has been found to have increased autoantibodies and anti-saccharomyces

note that saccharomyces is currently being used as a probiotic for c.diff

Raynaud's is a mysterious vasodilation issue where when exposed to the cold the person has the opposite response to cold: instead of dilating the vessels of the fingers the blood vessels contract first in a vasospasm

p450 and vasodilation

Nitric oxide normally inhibits P450
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9400024

When the body is exposed to cold temperatures nitric oxide triggers the blood vessels to contract.

What would happen if farsenal is constantly inhibiting p450 ?

Sclerodema and raynaud's
All scleroderma patients have secondary raynaud's....but not all raynaud's have scleroderma

How often is raynaud's with addison's disease?
