Fungal‐Bacterial Interactions in Polymicrobial Infections: Hidden Threats

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Polymicrobial infections involving fungi and bacteria represent a major and increasingly recognized clinical challenge, in which interkingdom interactions significantly amplify disease severity, antimicrobial resistance, and treatment failure. Rather than passive co‐existence, fungal–bacterial communities form highly coordinated systems driven

Recent Insights into the Paradoxical Effect of Echinocandins

Journal of Fungi, 2017
Echinocandin antifungals represent one of the most important drug classes for the treatment of invasive fungal infections. The mode of action of the echinocandins relies on inhibition of the β-1,3-glucan synthase, an enzyme essentially required for the ...

Phylogenetic Profiling of the Diabetic Foot Ulcer Microbiome of an Afro‐Caribbean Population

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Illumina amplicon sequencing revealed diverse bacterial and fungal communities in chronic diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) and adjacent normal skin from Afro‐Caribbean patients. Corynebacterium striatum dominated both sites. DFUs had higher relative abundance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the antifungal‐resistant Candida duobushaemulonii, with significantly
