Echinocandin resistance [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2014
Echinocandin resistance in Candida is a great concern, as the echinocandin drugs are recommended as first-line therapy for patients with invasive candidiasis. Here, we review recent advances in our understanding of the epidemiology, underlying mechanisms, methods for detection and clinical implications.Echinocandin resistance has emerged over the ...

Histone deacetylase inhibition as an alternative strategy against invasive aspergillosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a life-threatening infection due to Aspergillus fumigatus and other Aspergillus spp. Drugs targeting the fungal cell membrane (triazoles, amphotericin B) or cell wall (echinocandins) are currently the sole therapeutic ...
