The binding and cytochrome P45051 (CYP51) inhibition properties of a novel antifungal compound, VT-1161, against purified recombinant Candida albicans CYP51 (ERG11) and Homo sapiens CYP51 were compared with those of clotrimazole, fluconazole, itraconazole, and voriconazole. VT-1161 produced a type II binding spectrum with Candida albicans CYP51, characteristic of heme iron coordination. The bin...
mortality in compromised hosts. It is known that Candida virulence is a function of a multiplicity of factors working jointly to overcome the host defenses. Especially, studies of the pathogenic mechanisms of Candida infections have focused on dimorphism, protease production, cell growth, resistance to phagocytes, and adherence to host tissues. C. albicans is the most commonly isolated and the ...
The antimicrobial property of volatile aromatic oils from medicinal as well as other edible plants has been recognized since antiquity. Candida species are an important cause of opportunistic infections in the oral cavity of immunocompromised patients and vaginal candidiasis. The antifungal activity of the essential oil of Cinnamomum cassia (cassia oil) was investigated against 75 clinical isol...
Due to the rising importance of Candida glabrata and other non-albicans Candida as principle human opportunistic pathogens, 356 women with abnormal vaginal discharge who attended a private obstetrics and gynecology clinic in Amman, Jordan, between January 1999 and February 2001 were examined. The isolation rate of Candida spp. from high-vaginal swabs was 44.9%. CHROMagar Candida and conventiona...
INTRODUCTION Historically, Candida albicans has represented the most common cause of candidemia. However, the proportion of bloodstream infections due to non-albicans Candida species has increased. Because of the risk for candidemia in intra-abdominal surgical patients, some experts advocate the use of fluconazole prophylaxis. The impact of this practice on the distribution of Candida species i...
Background and Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of sodium bicarbonate against candida albicans, the main infectious factor of denture stomatitis, and to compare it with other common anti-candida medications. Materials and Methods: Three concentrations of Candida albicans (105, 106, 107 CFU/mL) were prepared. Experimental substances were 5% sodium bicarbonate, nystat...
This study was undertaken to determine if impaired neutrophil (polymorphonuclear leukocytes [PMNL]) function is associated with an elevated Candida antigen titer after injury. PMNL from eight severely injured adults with Candida antigen titers of > or = 1:4 (titer positive) were evaluated for the ability to inhibit growth of Candida albicans in vitro by using a [3H]glucose incorporation assay. ...
INTRODUCTION Infection with and antifungal resistance of Candida species have been on the rise globally. Relevant data on these pathogens are relatively few in our region, including Lebanon, thus warranting this study. METHODOLOGY This retrospective study of Candida spp. profiles and their in vitro antifungal susceptibility was based on analysis requests for 186 Candida non-albicans and 61 C....
Over a three years period, 472 Candida isolates were obtained from specimens of patients hospitalized either in "at risk", Bone Marrow Transplant Unit and Intensive Care Unit, or in conventional wards, Pneumological Divisions of the "Binaghi" Hospital of Cagliari (Italy). Antifungal susceptibility profile to amphotericin B, voriconazole, fluconazole and ketoconazole was determined. Candida albi...
Adhesion and colonization of the oral cavity by Candida albicans is an initial step in candidosis. Orthodontic and other oral appliances seem to favor candidal presence. The aim of this work was to compare the presence of Candida species in saliva, their adherence to oral epithelial cells, and the levels of anti–C. albicans IgA in children with or without orthodontic appliances. This study incl...
