Amphotericin B resistance and membrane fluidity in Kluyveromyces lactis strains.
The membrane fluidity of reduced-amphotericin B (AmB)-sensitivity Kluyveromyces lactis mutant strain is higher than that of the wild-type K. lactis strain. After culture of the K. lactis and K. lactis mutant cells in the presence of subinhibitory doses of AmB (10 and 125 mg/liter, respectively), the plasma membranes of both yeast strains also showed a higher fluidity than did those of control c...
متن کاملSusceptibility of zygomycetes to amphotericin B, miconazole, and ketoconazole.
Susceptibility to amphotericin B, miconazole, and ketoconazole was determined for 25 clinical isolates of zygomycetes in yeast nitrogen base broth and human serum. In yeast nitrogen base broth, 7 of 25 isolates were susceptible to an imidazole or amphotericin B. In serum, all were resistant to the imidazoles and inhibited by amphotericin B, the current drug of choice for infections caused by zy...
متن کاملAcute ischemic stroke : polymorphonuclear leukocyte membrane fluidity and cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration at baseline and after chemotactic activation.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Several reports have considered the role of systemic leukocytes in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Initially, greater attention was focused on the leukocyte count and subsequently on their adhesiveness, aggregation, rheology, and activation. The aim of this study was the evaluation of certain polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) parameters, reflecting their rheology and activat...

متن کاملAmphotericin-B promotes leukocyte aggregation of nylon-wool-fiber-treated polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
Severe pulmonary reactions have been reported in patients receiving leukocyte transfusion and amphotericin-B. To study the interaction of amphotericin-B with polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), purified human PMN were incubated with 200 mg of nylon wool fiber for 60 min either in the absence or presence of 2 mM EDTA. PMN were recovered in acid citrate dextrose solution and were suspended in bal...
