متن کاملPhotodynamic Inactivation of Candida albicans by Hematoporphyrin
Aim: To evaluate the capacity of hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether 23 (HMME) in the presence of light to cause photodynamic inactivation (PDI) of C. 24 albicans. Materials & methods: HMME photoactivity was evaluated against 25 azole-susceptible and resistant C. albicans. The mechanisms by which PDI of C. 26 albicans occurred were also investigated. Results: HMME-mediated PACT caused a 27 dose-de...
متن کاملPhotodynamic Inactivation Potentiates the Susceptibility of Antifungal Agents against the Planktonic and Biofilm Cells of Candida albicans
Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) has been shown to be a potential treatment modality against Candida infection. However, limited light penetration might leave some cells alive and undergoing regrowth. In this study, we explored the possibility of combining PDI and antifungal agents to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of Candida albicans and drug-resistant clinical isolates. We found that plankto...
متن کاملPhotodynamic Inactivation of Endopathogenic Microbiota Using Curcumin- mediated Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy
Root canal disinfection is one of the main factors governing success of endodontic therapy. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is presented as a promising antimicrobial therapy that can eliminate microbiota present in infected root canal systems. In this study, a series of experiments investigated the effects of aPDT on cell viability and biofilm degradation ability of endopathogenic mic...
متن کاملAntimicrobial photodynamic inactivation inhibits Candida albicans virulence factors and reduces in vivo pathogenicity.
The objective of this study was to evaluate whether Candida albicans exhibits altered pathogenicity characteristics following sublethal antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation (APDI) and if such alterations are maintained in the daughter cells. C. albicans was exposed to sublethal APDI by using methylene blue (MB) as a photosensitizer (0.05 mM) combined with a GaAlAs diode laser (λ 660 nm, 75 m...
