Eukaryotic microbes are easily treated in humans due to differences in cell processes. True or False?

Eukaryotic microbes, such as fungi and protozoa, share many cellular processes with human cells because both types of cells belong to the eukaryotic domain. This similarity in cellular machinery makes it challenging to treat infections caused by eukaryotic microbes without affecting the host's own cells. Many antifungal and antiparasitic drugs have narrow mechanisms of action, which are often associated with eukaryotic cells and can result in toxicity or side effects in human cells.

In contrast, bacterial infections are generally easier to treat with antibiotics that specifically target prokaryotic functions and structures, minimizing the impact on human eukaryotic cells. Therefore, the idea that eukaryotic microbes are easily treated in humans due to differences in cell processes is misleading, making the statement false.
