Quantitation of ergosterol content and gene expression profile of ERG11 gene in fluconazole-resistant Candida albicans
Background and Purpose: The frequency of opportunistic fungal infections in immunocompromised patients, especially by Candida species, has sharply increased in the last few decades. The objective of this study was to analyse the ergosterol content and gene expression profiling of clinical isolates of fluconazole resistant Candida albicans. Materials and Methods: Sixty clinical samples were ide...

متن کاملEffect of biogenic selenium nanoparticles on ERG11 and CDR1 gene expression in both fluconazole-resistant and -susceptible Candida albicans isolates
Background and Purpose: Candida albicans is the most common Candida species (spp.) isolated from fungal infections. Azole resistance in Candida species has been considerably increased in the last decades. Given the toxicity of the antimicrobial drugs, resistance to antifungal agents, and drug interactions, the identification of new antifungal agents seems essential. In this study, we assessed t...
متن کاملRegulation of ERG3, ERG6, and ERG11 Genes in Antifungal-Resistant isolates of Candida parapsilosis
Background: Candida parapsilosis is one of the five common strains of yeasts involved in invasive candidiasis. The expression analysis of sterol biosynthesis pathway genes, which are associated with resistance, can assist the better understanding of antifungal resistance mechanisms. Methods: The antifungal susceptibility of 120 clinical C. parapsilosis isolates was examined. The changes in the ...
متن کاملMechanisms of azole resistance in 52 clinical isolates of Candida tropicalis in China.
OBJECTIVES To explore the mechanisms underlying azole resistance in clinical isolates of Candida tropicalis collected in China by focusing on their efflux pumps, respiratory status and azole antifungal target enzyme. METHODS Fifty-two clinical isolates of C. tropicalis were collected from five hospitals in four provinces of China and antifungal susceptibility tests were performed. Rhodamine 6...
