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

The zinc cluster proteins Upc2 and Ecm22 promote filamentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by sterol biosynthesis-dependent and -independent pathways. [PDF]
The transition between a unicellular yeast form to multicellular filaments is crucial for budding yeast foraging and the pathogenesis of many fungal pathogens such as Candida albicans.

Evaluation of combination therapy for Burkholderia cenocepacia lung infection in different in vitro and in vivo models [PDF]
Burkholderia cenocepacia is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for life-threatening infections in cystic fibrosis patients. B. cenocepacia is extremely resistant towards antibiotics and therapy is complicated by its ability to form biofilms.

Fungal biofilm resistance [PDF]
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 ...

Translation inhibition by rocaglates activates a species-specific cell death program in the emerging fungal pathogen Candida auris [PDF]
Fungal infections are a major contributor to infectious disease-related deaths worldwide. Recently, global emergence of the fungal pathogen Candida auris has caused considerable concern because most C.

Molecular mechanisms of azole resistance in fungi [PDF]
This paper reviews the current status of our understanding of azole antifungal resistance mechanisms at the molecular level and explores their implications. Extensive biochemical studies have highlighted a significant diversity in mechanisms conferring resistance to azoles, which include alterations in sterol biosynthesis, target site, uptake and ...

Environmental azole fungicide, prochloraz, can induce cross-resistance to medical triazoles in Candida glabrata [PDF]
Acquisition of azole resistance by clinically relevant yeasts in nature may result in a significant, yet undetermined, impact in human health. The main goal of this study was to assess the development of cross-resistance between agricultural and clinical

Azole susceptibility and resistance in Candida dubliniensis [PDF]
Candida dubliniensis is a recently described species of pathogenic yeast that shares many phenotypic features with Candida albicans. It is primarily associated with oral colonization and infection in HIV-infected individuals. Isolates of C. dubliniensis are generally susceptible to commonly used azole antifungal agents; however, resistance has been ...

Abstract Mocravimod, a novel immunomodulator targeting sphingosine‐1‐phosphate receptor (S1PR), is being developed as a maintenance treatment for patients with acute myeloid leukemia undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. Preclinical data suggested that cytochrome (CYP) 3A4 is the primary enzyme involved in mocravimod metabolism.
