ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) aspergillosis is a life‐threatening infection with mortality rates exceeding 50%, especially in immunocompromised patients. Significant challenges persist due to limited antifungal drug penetration into the CNS, emerging resistance, and diagnostic delays, despite advancements in therapy and diagnostics ...

ABSTRACT Background Opportunistic yeasts account for a substantial proportion of invasive fungal infections and are important agents of healthcare‐associated infections, especially in intensive care units (ICUs). Objectives To describe the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of hospitalized patients with positive cultures for medically ...

Nikkomycin Z supersensitivity of an echinocandin-resistant mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Echinocandins and nikkomycins are antibiotics that inhibit the synthesis of the essential cell wall polysaccharide polymers 1,3-beta-glucan and chitin, respectively. Some 40 echinocandin-resistant Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants were isolated and assigned to five complementation groups.

MOLECULAR MECHANISMS OF DRUG RESISTANCE IN CANDIDA ALBICANS: ROLE OF TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS MCM1 AND ADA2 [PDF]
Candida albicans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen responsible for localized as well as disseminated infections. C. albicans is the most commonly isolated specie from blood cultures, accounting for over 60% of all Candida isolates. The fungistatic drug

Some issues of the resistance of Candida glabrata to echinocandins [PDF]
Invasive candidiasis is a common, severe and often difficult to treat complication in various categories of patients. Despite the fact that in most cases Candida albicans retains a leading position as an etiological cause, a pathogen such as Candida glabrata is becoming an increasingly relevant species, especially in oncohematology patients who have ...

ABSTRACT Fungal infections in Asia are influenced by warm, humid climates, high population density and expanding healthcare systems, which together facilitate the emergence, transmission and detection of both common and rare pathogens. While Candida and Aspergillus species remain the leading causes of invasive fungal disease, increasing attention has ...
