Fluconazole resistance in Candida albicans: a review of mechanisms.
Antifungal agents have greatly contributed to the improvement of public health. Nevertheless, antifungal resistant pathogens have increased during the past decade, becoming a serious concern. Candida albicans has been the most extensively studied pathogen in antifungal resistance because of their morbidity and mortality associated with infections in ...

Impact of milbemycin oxime on fluconazole resistance in <i>Candida auris</i>. [PDF]
Candida auris is a pathogenic yeast that can develop resistance to multiple antifungals, particularly to azoles (e.g. fluconazole). Milbemycin oxime potentiates the effect of fluconazole against Candida spp.

The assessment of therapeutic response of oropharyngeal and oesophageal candidiasis in AIDS using a new scoring system: studies with D0870. [PDF]
We developed and compared five scoring systems designed to quantitate therapeutic response in cases of oropharyngeal candidiasis. We utilized prospectively collected data on 114 patients treated with several doses of the azole D0870.

Fluconazole resistance in Candida glabrata [PDF]
We report a case of infection with Candida glabrata in which the organism became resistant to fluconazole and in which pre- and posttreatment isolates were available for comparison. The organism was cross-resistant to ketoconazole and itraconazole, in common with other azole-resistant yeasts.

Synergistic Effects of Amiodarone and Fluconazole on Candida tropicalis Resistant to Fluconazole [PDF]
ABSTRACT There have recently been significant increases in the prevalence of systemic invasive fungal infections. However, the number of antifungal drugs on the market is limited in comparison to the number of available antibacterial drugs. This fact, coupled with the increased frequency of cross-resistance, makes it necessary to

Ibuprofen-Mediated Reversal of Fluconazole Resistance in Clinical Isolates of Candida [PDF]
Introduction: In view of the increasing prevalence of invasive Candidiasis in today’s health-care scenario and the emergence of fluconazole resistance among clinical isolates of Candida, we sought to determine if Ibuprofen could elicit a reversal of ...

Genomic Variation-Mediating Fluconazole Resistance in Yeast. [PDF]
Fungal infections pose a serious and growing threat to public health. These infections can be treated with antifungal drugs by killing hazardous fungi in the body. However, the resistance can develop over time when fungi are exposed to antifungal drugs by generating genomic variations, including mutation, aneuploidy, and loss of heterozygosity.

Fluconazole Assists Berberine To Kill Fluconazole-Resistant Candida albicans [PDF]
ABSTRACT It was found in our previous study that berberine (BBR) and fluconazole (FLC) used concomitantly exhibited a synergism against FLC-resistant Candida albicans in vitro . The aim of the present study was to clarify how BBR and FLC worked synergistically and the underlying mechanism ...
