Overcoming antifungal resistance [PDF]

open access: yesDrug Discovery Today: Technologies, 2014
Fungal infections have become one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients. Despite increased awareness and improved treatment strategies, the frequent development of resistance to the antifungal drugs used in clinical settings contributes to the increasing toll of mycoses.

Fungal infections: Pathogenesis, antifungals and alternate treatment approaches

open access: yesCurrent Research in Microbial Sciences, 2022
Increasing incidence of fungal infections of recent times requires immediate intervention. Fungal infections are seldom construed at initial stages that intensify the severity of infections and complicate the treatment procedures. Fungal pathogens employ

Molecular Mechanisms of Antifungal Drug Resistance in Candida Species [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2018
Invasive Candidal infections have emerged as one of the major threats to the world. Although, many new antifungal drugs have been developed in the recent years, the emergence of drug resistance has become a major deterrent in the antifungal therapy ...

Antifungal drug resistance: an update [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Hospital Pharmacy, 2022
The number of antifungal classes is small, and resistance is becoming a much more frequent problem. Much greater emphasis needs to be placed on susceptibility testing and antifungal stewardship. Such efforts demonstrably improve survival and overall clinical outcomes.

Global Prevalence of Antifungal-Resistant Candida parapsilosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

open access: yesTropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2022
A reliable estimate of Candida parapsilosis antifungal susceptibility in candidemia patients is increasingly important to track the spread of C. parapsilosis bloodstream infections and define the true burden of the ongoing antifungal resistance.

Fungal biofilm resistance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Fungal biofilm infections have become increasingly recognised as a significant clinical problem. One of the major reasons behind this is the impact that these have upon treatment, as antifungal therapy often fails and surgical intervention is required ...

Exploring hidden dimensions of soil fungal biodiversity: A simple technique to detect soil fungi resistant to antifungal compounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Soils are known to be ultimate and complex reservoirs of microbial diversity. The complex dimensions of bacterial and fungal diversity in tropical soils and microbial community dynamics are underexplored.

Histone Acetylation Regulator Gcn5 Mediates Drug Resistance and Virulence of Candida glabrata

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Candida glabrata is poised to adapt to drug pressure rapidly and acquire antifungal resistance leading to therapeutic failure. Given the limited antifungal armamentarium, there is an unmet need to explore new targets or therapeutic strategies for ...

Update on Antifungal Drug Resistance [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Clinical Microbiology Reports, 2015
Invasive fungal infections remain a major source of global morbidity and mortality, especially among patients with underlying immune suppression. Successful patient management requires antifungal therapy. Yet, treatment choices are restricted due to limited classes of antifungal agents and the emergence of antifungal drug resistance.

Hsp90 governs dispersion and drug resistance of fungal biofilms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Fungal biofilms are a major cause of human mortality and are recalcitrant to most treatments due to intrinsic drug resistance. These complex communities of multiple cell types form on indwelling medical devices and their eradication often requires ...
