Synergistic Antifungal Effect of Fluconazole Combined with Licofelone against Resistant Candida albicans
Candida albicans (C. albicans) is one of the important opportunistic fungal pathogens that is closely associated with disseminated or chronic infections. The objective of this study is to evaluate the synergistic antifungal effect of licofelone, which is dual microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase/lipoxygenase (mPGES-1/LOX) inhibitor in combination with fluconazole against C. albicans. Here our r...
متن کاملAntifungal activity of essential oils from Iranian plants against fluconazole-resistant and fluconazole-susceptible Candida albicans
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assay the antifungal activity of selected essential oils obtained from plants against both fluconazole (FLU)-resistant and FLU-susceptible C. albicans strains isolated from HIV positive patients with oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC). Materials and Methods: The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation method from Myrtus communis (My. communis)...
متن کاملInhibitory Effect of Fluconazole Combined with Amphotericin B on Fluconazole-Resistant Candida albicans Biofilm Formation
Background & Objective: The incidence of biofilm-related infections caused by Candida albicans has increased dramatically. C. albicans biofilm-related infections are more resistant to antifungal medications. This work was an attempt to examine inhibitory effects of fluconazole in combination with amphotericin B on fluconazole-resistant C. albicans biofilm. Materials & Methods: Fluconazole-...
متن کاملAntifungal mechanism of hinokitiol against Candida albicans.
The growth of Candida albicans was dose-dependently inhibited by addition of hinokitiol. The sensitivity of C. albicans to hinokitiol under aerobic conditions was higher than that under anaerobic conditions. Amount of ATP in C. albicans was not inhibited by hinokitiol under both conditions. The expression of mRNAs related to the growth signal, CYR1 and RAS1, was inhibited by hinokitiol. These f...
متن کاملMechanism of the synergistic effect of amiodarone and fluconazole in Candida albicans.
The antiarrhythmic drug amiodarone has been found to have fungicidal activity. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, its antifungal activity is mediated by calcium overload stress, which leads to a rapid nuclear accumulation of the calcineurin-regulated transcription factor CRZ1. In addition, low doses of amiodarone have been reported to be synergistic with fluconazole in fluconazole-resistant Candida a...
