Synergistic fungistatic effects of lactoferrin in combination with antifungal drugs against clinical Candida isolates.
Because of the rising incidence of failures in the treatment of oropharyngeal candidosis in the case of severely immunosuppressed patients (mostly human immunodeficiency virus [HIV]-infected patients), there is need for the development of new, more effective agents and/or compounds that support the activity of the common antifungal agents. Since lactoferrin is one of the nonspecific host defens...
متن کاملColony variation in Candida glabrata isolates from patients with vaginitis.
The ability of Candida glabrata to switch between different colony phenotypes on a Sabouraud's-chloramphenicol agar supplemented with phloxine B was assessed in 14 C. glabrata isolates. Three phenotypes (pale pink smooth, dark pink smooth and fuchsia petite) were observed in vitro and two of them (pale pink smooth and dark pink smooth) in fresh clinical isolates plated directly from vaginal spe...
متن کاملClinical Characteristics of Turkish Women with Candida krusei Vaginitis and Antifungal Susceptibility of the C. krusei Isolates
OBJECTIVE Candida krusei causes approximately 1% of vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) cases and is naturally resistant to fluconazole. Antifungal testing may be required if C. krusei vaginitis fails to respond to non-fluconazole therapy, particularly in patients with recurrent infections. DESIGN We investigated the clinical characteristics and antifungal susceptibility profile of vaginal C. krus...
متن کاملIn Vitro Activities of Six Antifungal Drugs Against Candida glabrata Isolates: An Emerging Pathogen
BACKGROUND Candida glabrata is a pathogenic yeast with several unique biological features and associated with an increased incidence rate of candidiasis. It exhibits a great degree of variation in its pathogenicity and antifungal susceptibility. OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to evaluate the in vitro antifungal susceptibilities of the following six antifungal drugs against clinic...
