Susceptibility of Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis to erythrosine- and LED-mediated photodynamic therapy.
The effect of erythrosine- and LED-mediated photodynamic therapy (PDT) on planktonic cultures and biofilms of Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis was evaluated. Planktonic cultures of standardized suspensions (10(6)cells/mL) of C. albicans and C. dubliniensis were treated with erythrosine concentrations of 0.39-200 μM and LEDs in a 96-well microtiter plate. Biofilms formed by C. albicans ...
متن کاملSusceptibility of Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis to Photodynamic Therapy Using Four Dyes as the Photosensitizer
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM Oral candidiasis is the most common opportunistic infection affecting the human oral cavity. Photodynamic therapy, as one of its proposed treatment modalities, needs a distinct dye for achieving the best effect. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate photosensitization effects of four distinct dyes on standard suspension of Candida albicans (C. albicans) an...
متن کاملEffect of erythrosine- and LED-mediated photodynamic therapy on buccal candidiasis infection of immunosuppressed mice and Candida albicans adherence to buccal epithelial cells.
OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the effects of photodynamic therapy (PDT) on buccal candidiasis in mice and on the adherence of yeast to buccal epithelial cells (BECs) in vitro. STUDY DESIGN A total of 56 immunosuppressed mice with buccal candidiasis were subjected to PDT, consisting of treatment with erythrosine (400 μmol/L) followed by exposure to a green LED (14.34 J cm(-2)). After treatmen...
متن کاملArachidonic acid increases antifungal susceptibility of Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis.
OBJECTIVES During Candida albicans infection, arachidonic acid (AA) is released from phospholipids of infected host cell membranes and used by C. albicans as the sole carbon source and for production of eicosanoids. AA can be incorporated into the phospholipids of yeasts, influencing the saturation level and fluidity of yeast cell membranes. It is suggested that the effectiveness of polyene (e....
متن کاملThe Phenotypic variation of Candida albicans and susceptibility to fluconazole and voriconazole
Candida albicans is the most frequent opportunistic fungal agent in human being. One of its virulence factors is phenotypic switching. In this study, we investigated the susceptibility of different phenotypes of C. albicans, obtained from clinical specimens, to fluconazole (FLZ) and voriconazole (VRZ) with microdilution reference method. In this study, 281 C. albicans of six different phenotype...
