Analysis of ergosterol and gene expression profiles of sterol ∆5,6-desaturase (ERG3) and lanosterol 14α-demethylase (ERG11) in Candida albicans treated with carvacrol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction: Usually, for treatment of fungal infections, antifungals such as azoles are used, but one of the biggest problems faced in clinical practice is the emergence of resistance for most of these drugs.

ERG11 and ABC2 Overexpression but Not ERG11 Gene Mutations Are Involved in the Development of Itraconazole Resistance in Candida Krusei

open access: yesBlood, 2015
Abstract Background: Recent years, the incidence and mortality of fungal infection has been on the rise in the patients with hematologic malignancies. This is mainly associated with antifungal resistance and the restricted number of available antifungal drugs.

A Crucial Role for Ergosterol in Plasma Membrane Composition, Localisation, and Activity of Cdr1p and H+-ATPase in Candida albicans

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
Candida albicans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen of humans. Treatment of C. albicans infections relies on azoles, which target the lanosterol 14α-demethylase (Erg11p) encoded by the ERG11 gene.

Delineation of the Direct Contribution of Candida auris ERG11 Mutations to Clinical Triazole Resistance

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2021
Resistance to fluconazole is one of clinical characteristics most frequently challenging the treatment of invasive Candida auris infections, and is observed among >90% of all characterized clinical isolates. In this work, the native C. auris ERG11 allele

Combined antifungal resistance and biofilm tolerance: the global threat of Candida auris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The enigmatic yeast Candida auris has emerged over the last decade and rapidly penetrated our consciousness. The global threat from this multidrug-resistant yeast has generated a call to arms from within the medical mycology community.

Environmental azole fungicide, prochloraz, can induce cross-resistance to medical triazoles in Candida glabrata [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Acquisition of azole resistance by clinically relevant yeasts in nature may result in a significant, yet undetermined, impact in human health. The main goal of this study was to assess the development of cross-resistance between agricultural and clinical

Drug Resistance-Associated Mutations in ERG11 of Multidrug-Resistant Candida auris in a Tertiary Care Hospital of Eastern Saudi Arabia

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2020
Candida auris is an emerging multi-drug resistant pathogen with high mortality rate; nosocomial infections have been reported worldwide, causing a major challenge for clinicians and microbiological laboratories. The study aims to describe new cases of C.

Gene expression profiles of ERG11, MDR1 and AFR1 in Cryptococcus neoformans var.grubbi from HIV patients

open access: yesBiomedica : revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2022
Introduction: Fluconazole is the most used antifungal drug for prevention and treatment of Cryptococcus spp. infections, the etiological agent of cryptococcosis. Resistance to fluconazole among Cryptococcus neoformans isolates can lead to treatment failure and generate relapses. Objective: To evaluate the expression profiles of the AFR1, MDR1 and ERG11

Correlation between ERG11 Gene Mutations and Fluconazole Resistance in Candida albicans Strains Isolated from Rasht in Years 2015-2016 [PDF]

open access: yesMajallah-i dānishgāh-i ̒ulūm-i pizishkī-i Arāk, 2017
Background: Candida albicans as an opportunistic fungal pathogen in human causes candidiasis. The widespread use of azoles has led to the increase of azole resistance in Candida albicans isolates.
