[ 1 ] - A New Approach to Virulence Factors of Candida albicans: From Gene to Function

Recently, there is an increasing trend in the diversity of pathogenic yeasts isolated from clinical samples. However, Candida albicans is even now the major cause of yeast infections. Candida albicans is one of the members of the mucosal microbiota which can cause cutaneous, mucosal, and disseminated invasive infections in susceptible individuals. For persistence in the host, the yeast must hav...

[ 2 ] - Antifungal Susceptibility of 3,4-di-hydropyrimidine-1-(H2)-L-H1-pyrrole Derivatives in Candida Clinical Isolates

Background and purpose: There is an increasing rate of drug resistance to azole among Candida species, so, finding new compounds that are effective in laboratory conditions, such as 3,4-dihydropyrimidine derivatives are important. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antifungal sensitivity of 3,4-di-hydropyrimidine-1- (H2) -L- H1-pyrrole derivatives in Candida isolates. Materials and ...

[ 3 ] - The effect of adding Thymus vulgaris and Cinnamomum verum essential oils in self-cured acrylic blocks on adhesion of Candida albicans

Abstract Background and Aim: Oral candidiasis is the most common opportunistic infection of the oral mucosa with Candida spp. Candida species form a biofilm in patients who need orthodontics with removable plaque, and this structure can lead to Candidemia. It is an important to find effective plant compounds due to less side effects and naturalness of their compounds to prevent biofilm formati...
