Tolerability profile of the current antifungal armoury [PDF]
AbstractThe tolerability of available antifungal agents is essential to the final outcome of the management of invasive mycoses. There are limited classes of antifungal agents for use, and they can have serious direct toxicities and/or drug–drug interactions.

Tunicamycin Potentiates Antifungal Drug Tolerance via Aneuploidy in
How cells exposed to one stress are later able to better survive other types of stress is not well understood. In eukaryotic organisms, physiological and pathological stresses can disturb endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function, resulting in “ER stress ...

Trichosporon asahii and Trichosporon inkin Biofilms Produce Antifungal-Tolerant Persister Cells [PDF]
Persister cells are metabolically inactive dormant cells that lie within microbial biofilms. They are phenotypic variants highly tolerant to antimicrobials and, therefore, associated with recalcitrant infections. In the present study, we investigated ifTrichosporon asahiiandT. inkinare able to produce persister cells.Trichosporonspp.
