Plasma Membrane Proteolipid 3 Protein Modulates Amphotericin B Resistance through Sphingolipid Biosynthetic Pathway
Invasive opportunistic fungal infections of humans are common among those suffering from impaired immunity, and are difficult to treat resulting in high mortality. Amphotericin B (AmB) is one of the few antifungals available to treat such infections. The AmB resistance mechanisms reported so far mainly involve decrease in ergosterol content or alterations in cell wall. In contrast, depletion of...
متن کاملAntifungal susceptibilities of clinical isolates of Candida species, Cryptococcus neoformans, and Aspergillus species from Taiwan: surveillance of multicenter antimicrobial resistance in Taiwan program data from 2003.
The susceptibilities of nonduplicate isolates to six antifungal agents were determined for 391 blood isolates of seven Candida species, 70 clinical isolates (from blood or cerebrospinal fluid) of Cryptococcus neoformans, and 96 clinical isolates of four Aspergillus species, which were collected in seven different hospitals in Taiwan (as part of the 2003 program of the study group Surveillance o...

متن کاملMulticenter evaluation of MIC distributions for epidemiologic cutoff value definition to detect amphotericin B, posaconazole, and itraconazole resistance among the most clinically relevant species of Mucorales.
Clinical breakpoints (CBPs) have not been established for the Mucorales and any antifungal agent. In lieu of CBPs, epidemiologic cutoff values (ECVs) are proposed for amphotericin B, posaconazole, and itraconazole and four Mucorales species. Wild-type (WT) MIC distributions (organisms in a species-drug combination with no detectable acquired resistance mechanisms) were defined with available po...
متن کاملFungal Biofilms
• They are responsible for a broad spectrum of microbial infections in the human host [1] • Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis biofilms are relatively resistant to fluconazole, amphotericin B, nystatin, voriconazole and others [2]. • Aspergillus fumigatus biofilms are relatively resistant to itraconazole and, to some extent, to caspofungin [3]. • Cryptococcal biofilms are unaffected by f...
