Lipase Gene Expression of Resistant and Sensitive Candida Albicans to Fluconazole Isolated from Patients Suffering from Oral Candidiasis and Vaginal Candidiasis

Medical Laboratory Journal, 2015
Background and Objective: With the development of drug resistance in strains of fungi, there is a considerable resistance of Candida albicans strains to fluconazole. Molecular studies are developing to determine the relationship of such a drug resistance

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Piperazinyl quinolines as chemosensitizers to increase fluconazole susceptibility of Candida albicans clinical isolates [PDF]

, 2011
The effectiveness of the potent antifungal drug fluconazole is being compromised by the rise of drug-resistant fungal pathogens. While inhibition of Hsp90 or calcineurin can reverse drug resistance in Candida, such inhibitors also impair the homologous ...

Platelet‐Rich Fibrins as Local Drug‐Delivery Carriers

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Autologous platelet concentrates (APCs), particularly platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF), act as biologically active fibrin scaffolds, capable of entrapping and gradually releasing therapeutic agents in oral and periodontal therapy. The incorporation of bioactive compounds, such as antibiotics, antifungals, vitamins, antidiabetic drugs, and exosomes, enhances ...

An Update on Invasive Fungal Infections in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Invasive fungal infections (IFI) remain a significant infection‐related complication in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs), the incidence of which has not changed overtime. With a focus on studies and data published after 2019, this narrative review provides an update on the epidemiology and prevention of IFIs in SOTRs and highlights ...

Reduced susceptibility to fluconazole in a cat with histoplasmosis

Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports, 2017
Case summary An 11-year-old neutered male domestic longhair cat was diagnosed with histoplasmosis from fine-needle aspirates of an abdominal lymph node. Lymph node size initially decreased with fluconazole therapy (11.8 mg/kg PO q12h); however, after 13 ...

Understanding adaptation to fluconazole: comparative insights into tolerance and resistance in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
IntroductionAntifungal resistance and tolerance are distinct responses exhibited by fungi when exposed to drugs. While considerable research has focused on azole tolerance in the human pathogen Candida albicans, studies in other fungal species remain ...

Mechanism of berberine-mediated fluconazole-susceptibility enhancement in clinical fluconazole-resistant Candida tropicalis isolates

Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2017
Candida tropicalis was one of the most common non-albicans Candida (NACA) species creating relatively high morbidity and mortality. We previously demonstrated that the antifungal effect of BBR in combination with FLC might be attributed to reactive oxygen species production, ergosterol content and efflux pump levels in a clinical C.
