Emerging Threats in Antifungal-Resistant Fungal Pathogens
The use of antifungal drugs in the therapy of fungal diseases can lead to the development of antifungal resistance. Resistance has been described for virtually all antifungal agents in diverse pathogens, including Candida and Aspergillus species. The majority of resistance mechanisms have also been elucidated at the molecular level in these pathogens. Drug resistance genes and genome mutations ...
متن کاملEmerging pathogens: fungal host jumps following anthropogenic introduction.
an important additional dimension. In birds, sexual dimorphism in singing and song learning varies greatly among species, and sex differences in brain morphology are the most extreme documented in any vertebrate [2,3]. Differences in female song-learning strategies might be even greater than those observed in male vocal learning, ranging from no learning to learning as much as males do [3,4]. S...
متن کاملEmerging disease issues and fungal pathogens associated with HIV infection.
Fungal diseases are increasing among patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1. Infections due to Candida and Cryptococcus are the most common. Although mucocutaneous candidiasis can be treated with oral antifungal agents, increasing evidence suggests that prolonged use of these drugs results in both clinical and microbiologic resistance. The optimal therapy for cryptococ...
متن کاملControl of Phagocytosis by Microbial Pathogens
Phagocytosis is a fundamental process of cells to capture and ingest foreign particles. Small unicellular organisms such as free-living amoeba use this process to acquire food. In pluricellular organisms, phagocytosis is a universal phenomenon that all cells are able to perform (including epithelial, endothelial, fibroblasts, etc.), but some specialized cells (such as neutrophils and macrophage...
متن کاملFungal skull base osteomyelitis: Emerging microbial identification techniques.
Culture-based pathogen identification in skull base osteomyelitis, particularly for fungi, is often inaccurate. We report the case of patient with fungal skull base osteomyelitis cured by sustained antifungal therapy after 16 months of debilitating illness. Due to medical complications, a strong clinical rationale was needed to justify long-term antifungal therapy. The offending fungus was iden...
