Antifungal Resistance in Dermatophytes: Genetic Considerations, Clinical Presentations and Alternative Therapies

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2021
Numerous reports describe the emergence of resistance in dermatophytes, especially in T. rubrum and T. mentagrophytes/indotineae strains. We here present a review of the current status of resistance in dermatophytes worldwide.

Effect of detergents on sterol synthesis in a cell-free system of yeast

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1982
In order to obtain information about the reactivity of enzymes in sterol synthesis of yeast, the effects of some detergents were investigated. Among the detergents used, Triton X-100 was found to exert a unique action, and its effect on the incorporation

Cholesterol mediated ferroptosis suppression reveals essential roles of Coenzyme Q and squalene

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Recent findings have shown that fatty acid metabolism is profoundly involved in ferroptosis. However, the role of cholesterol in this process remains incompletely understood.

Intermembrane transfer of squalene promoted by supernatant protein factor

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1983
Supernatant protein factor (SPF), a protein that stimulates squalene epoxidation, mediates the transfer of squalene between two separable microsomal populations (Kojima, Y., E. J. Friedlander, and K. Bloch, 1981. J. Biol Chem. 256: 7235-7239).

Inhibition of cholesterol biosynthesis by squalene epoxidase inhibitor avoids apoptotic cell death in L6 myoblasts

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1997
The relationship between the inhibition of cholesterol biosynthesis and occurrence of myopathy was studied in L6 myoblasts using two lines of cholesterol biosynthesis inhibitors, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor ...

Tissue-specific coordinate regulation of enzymes of cholesterol biosynthesis: sciatic nerve versus liver

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1996
Exposure of weanling rats to a diet containing the element tellurium results in specific inhibition of squalene epoxidase, an obligate enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis.

Report of terbinafine resistant Trichophyton spp. in Italy: Clinical presentations, molecular identification, antifungal susceptibility testing and mutations in the squalene epoxidase gene

open access: yesMycoses (Berlin), 2023
Numerous reports of resistance to terbinafine in Trichophyton spp. from all over the world are arousing justified attention and concern. Point mutations in the gene that encodes the squalene epoxidase (SQLE) enzyme are responsible for these therapeutic ...

Squalene epoxidase as a target for manipulation of squalene levels in the yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Yeast Research, 2013
Squalene is a valuable natural substance with several biotechnological applications. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, it is produced in the isoprenoid pathway as the first precursor dedicated to ergosterol biosynthesis. The aim of this study was to explore the potential of squalene epoxidase encoded by the ERG1 gene as the target for manipulating

1% film-forming terbinafine solution in therapy in patients with long-lasting foot mycoses

open access: yesМедицинский совет, 2019
Topical antimycotic agents are used in the treatment of foot mycosis. Numerous studies have shown the efficacy of terbinafine. Fungistatic activity of the medication is provided by blockade of action of squalene epoxidase enzyme and subsequent inhibition
