Treatment of Primary Pulmonary Aspergillosis: An Assessment of the Evidence

Journal of Fungi, 2016
Aspergillus spp. are a group of filamentous molds that were first described due to a perceived similarity to an aspergillum, or liturgical device used to sprinkle holy water, when viewed under a microscope.

Biofilm Production and Antibiofilm Activity of Echinocandins and Liposomal Amphotericin B in Echinocandin-Resistant Yeast Species.

, 2016
The echinocandins and liposomal amphotericin B are active against biofilm produced by echinocandin-susceptible Candida strains. However, few data have been reported on the production of biofilm by echinocandin-resistant isolates and their antifungal ...

Microcolony Imaging of Aspergillus fumigatus Treated with Echinocandins Reveals Both Fungistatic and Fungicidal Activities

, 2012
Background: The echinocandins are lipopeptides that can be employed as antifungal drugs that inhibit the synthesis of 1,3-beta-glucans within the fungal cell wall.

Profound cell wall remodeling in Candida parapsilosis during systemic infection confers simultaneous tolerance to echinocandins and host immunity

Microbiology Spectrum
Antifungal tolerance can promote the emergence of resistance yet often incurs fitness costs for fungal pathogens. How tolerant populations compensate for these deficits and how they may be therapeutically targeted remain poorly understood.

Potential Microbiological Effects of Higher Dosing of Echinocandins [PDF]

, 2017
The antifungal "paradoxical effect” has been described as the reversal of growth inhibition at high doses of echinocandins, most usually caspofungin.

Shifting Epidemiology and Antifungal Susceptibility Patterns of Clinical Fungal Isolates in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) from Bucharest, Romania: A Retrospective Observational Study

Antibiotics
Background: Antifungal resistance among Candida species represents a growing clinical challenge, particularly in the context of increasing prevalence of non-albicans species. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 747 fungal isolates collected
