Pseudohyphae formation in Candida glabrata due to CO2 exposure

Current Medical Mycology, 2016
Background and Purpose: Formation of pseudohyphae is considered a virulence factor in Candida species. Generally, Candida glabrata grows as budding yeast cells; however, reports illustrated that C.

The activity of echinocandins, amphotericin B and voriconazole against fluconazole-susceptible and fluconazole-resistant Brazilian Candida glabrata isolates

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2012
The extensive use of azole antifungal agents has promoted the resistance of Candida spp to these drugs. Candida glabrata is a problematic yeast because it presents a high degree of primary or secondary resistance to fluconazole. In Brazil, C.

Candida glabrata Esophagitis: Are We Seeing the Emergence of a New Azole-Resistant Pathogen?

International Journal of Microbiology, 2014
Background. Candida glabrata (C. glabrata) has become a recognized pathogen in fungal esophagitis. A proportion of these isolates are azole-resistant which may have treatment implications.

New regulators of biofilm development in Candida glabrata

Research in Microbiology, 2012
Biofilm formation plays an important role in fungal pathogenesis. In this work, we used a genetic screen in order to identify and characterize genes involved in the formation of biofilms by the opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida glabrata. We identified the Cst6p transcription factor as a negative regulator of the EPA6 gene that encodes an adhesin ...

Candida glabrata biofilms response to amphotericin B [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Candida species are responsible for recurrent human infections, mostly in immunocompromised patients, due to their high vulnerability. Candida glabrata has been showing to have a major role in these infections being the second most prevalent ...

Interkingdom interactions on the denture surface: implications for oral hygiene [PDF]

, 2019
Background: Evidence to support the role of Candida species in oral disease is limited. Often considered a commensal, this opportunistic yeast has been shown to play a role in denture related disease, though whether it is an active participant or ...

Fungal infections in liver transplant recipients [PDF]

, 1985
Sixty-two adults who underwent orthotopic liver transplantations between February 1981 and June 1983 were followed for a mean of 170 days after the operation. Twenty-six patients developed 30 episodes of significant fungal infection.

Gaining insights from Candida biofilm heterogeneity: one size does not fit all [PDF]

, 2018
Despite their clinical significance and substantial human health burden, fungal infections remain relatively under-appreciated. The widespread overuse of antibiotics and the increasing requirement for indwelling medical devices provides an opportunistic ...
