In vitro activities of natural products against oral Candida isolates from denture wearers
(BioMed Central, 2011-11-26)
Background: Candida-associated denture stomatitis is a frequent infectious disease. Treatment of this oral condition is difficult because failures and recurrences are common. The aim of this study was to test the in vitro ...
Candidiasis by Candida glabrata, Candida nivariensis and Candida bracarensis in Galleria mellonella: Virulence and Therapeutic Responses to Echinocandins
(MDPI, 2021-11-23)
Candida albicans is the major etiological agent of invasive candidiasis but the increasing prevalence of emerging species of Candida, such as Candida glabrata and phylogenetically closely related species, Candida nivariensis ...
In vitro activities of carvacrol, cinnamaldehyde and thymol against Candida biofilms
(Elsevier, 2021-11)
[EN]Oral candidiasis is frequently associated with Candida biofilms. Biofilms are microbial communities related to persistent, recalcitrant and difficult to-treat infections. Conventional treatments are not sufficient to ...
Caenorhabditis elegans as a Model System To Assess Candida glabrata, Candida nivariensis, and Candida bracarensis Virulence and Antifungal Efficacy
(American Society for Microbiology (ASM), 2020-09-21)
Although Candida albicans remains the major etiological agent of invasive
candidiasis, Candida glabrata and other emerging species of Candida are
increasingly isolated. This species is the second most prevalent cause of ...
Postantifungal Effect of Micafungin against the Species Complexes of Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis
(Public Library Science, 2015-07-13)
Micafungin is an effective antifungal agent useful for the therapy of invasive candidiasis. Candida albicans is the most common cause of invasive candidiasis; however, infections due to non-C. albicans species, such as ...
Prevalence and antifungal susceptibility profiles of Candida glabrata, Candida parapsilosis and their close-related species in oral candidiasis
(Elsevier, 2018-11)
Objective: To evaluate the importance of Candida glabrata, Candida parapsilosis and their close-related species, Candida bracarensis, Candida nivariensis, Candida metapsilosis and Candida orthopsilosis in patients with ...
Utility of two PCR-RFLP-based techniques for identification of Candida parapsilosis complex blood isolates
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020-05)
Background: Candida parapsilosis is the second or third most frequently isolated
Candida species related to nosocomial infections, even overtaking Candida albicans
in some hospitals. C. parapsilosis constitutes a complex ...
PK/PD modeling and simulation of the in vitro activity of the combinations of isavuconazole with echinocandins against Candida auris
(Wiley, 2023-06)
In vitro combination of echinocandins and isavuconazole against the emerging species Candida auris is mainly synergistic. However, this combination has not been evaluated in clinical settings. A pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic ...
Efficacy of the combination of amphotericin B and echinocandins against Candida auris in vitro and in the Caenorhabditis elegans host model
(American Society of Microbiology, 2024-01)
The multidrug-resistant Candida auris is a global health emergency, being responsible for outbreaks of invasive candidiasis worldwide. Limited effective therapeutic options make it difficult to treat this emerging pathogen. ...
