ERG11 gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to fluconazole in Candida isolates from diabetic and kidney transplant patients

open access: yesRevista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2019
INTRODUCTION: Candidiasis is the most frequent opportunistic mycosis in humans and can cause mortality, particularly in immunodeficient patients. One major concern is the increasing number of infections caused by drug-resistant Candidas trains, as these ...

Spectrum and functional properties of ERG11 gene mutations in fluconazole-resistant Candida albicans strains isolated from HIV-infected patients

open access: yesЖурнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии, 2023
Rationale. The low efficacy of azole antimycotics in treatment of Candida infections, especially in HIV-infected patients, is often associated with overexpression of the ERG11 gene in Candida spp., which results in increased production of ergosterol the

Mechanisms of azole antifungal resistance in clinical isolates of Candida tropicalis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
This study was designed to understand the molecular mechanisms of azole resistance in Candida tropicalis using genetic and bioinformatics approaches. Thirty-two azole-resistant and 10 azole-susceptible (S) clinical isolates of C.

Analysis of molecular resistance to azole and echinocandin in Candida species in patients with vulvovaginal candidiasis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Medical Mycology, 2022
Background and Purpose: Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is considered the most common mucosal infection caused by Candida species. Azoles were considered the firstline treatment for VVC or recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis (RVVC) in both healthy and ...

Recovery Rate of Fungal Pathogens Isolated from Cases of Bovine and Ovine Mycotic Mastitis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Medical Research, 2023
Investigating bovine and ovine mycotic mastitis was the study's goal. A total of 250 milk samples were collected from cows, ewes and does suffering from mastitis, not responding for antibiotic therapy, to determine the prevalence of fungal pathogens ...

The Risk Factors and Mechanisms of Azole Resistance of Candida tropicalis Blood Isolates in Thailand: A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2022
In recent decades, an epidemiological shift has been observed from Candida infections to non-albicans species and resistance to azoles. We investigated the associated factors and molecular mechanisms of azole-resistant blood isolates of C.
