Rhamnolipids (RLs), glycolipids biosynthesized by the Pseudomonas and Burkholderia genera, are known to display various activities against a wide range of pathogens. Most previous studies on RLs focused on their direct antimicrobial activity, while only a few reports described t...

Candida albicans, a World Health Organization critical-priority fungal pathogen, represents the predominant cause of candidemia. Therapeutic failure is sometimes driven by antifungal tolerance, a phenotype distinct from resistance, whose underlying mechanisms remain incompletely defined....

30h of growth biofilms in microfermentors were exposed to caspofungin 0.5 µg/ml, caspofungin 5 µg/ml, fluconazole 80 µg/ml or amphotericin B 8 µg/ml. Control and antifungal-exposed biofilms were recovered at t= 0, 30, 60 and 120 min post exposure to antifungal.

The identification of novel transcription factors associated to antifungal response may allow the discovery of fungal specific targets for new therapeutic strategies. A collection of 241 C. albicans transcriptional regulators mutants was screened for altered susceptibility to fluconazole, caspofungi...

The effect of cell free supernatant from the antifungal strain Lactobacillus plantarum 16 on the growth of Aspergillus fumigatus Af293 was assessed. Transcriptome analysis of the genome was performed after ten minutes exposure to antifungal supernatant in order to determine the molecular targets inv...

Antifungal resistance, particularly the rise in multidrug resistance, has become a critical public health concern, garnering substantial attention. In this study, we used experimental evolution with Neurospora crassa as a model and identified a novel multidrug-resistance gene, msp-8, which encodes a...

Arabidopsis thaliana genes MLO2 (Mildew resistance locus-O 2), MLO6 and MLO12 exhibit unequal genetic redundancy with respect to the modulation of defense responses against powdery mildew fungi and the control of developmental phenotypes such as premature leaf decay. We show that early chlorosis and...

Fungal infections are a serious health problem in the clinic especially in the immunocompromised patient. Disease ranges from widespread superficial vulvovaginal infections to life-threatening systemic candidiasis. Especially for systemic mycoses only a limited arsenal of antimycotica are available,...

The leucine CUG codon was reassigned to serine in the fungal pathogen Candida albicans. To clarify the biological role of this tuneable codon ambiguity on drug resistance, we evolved C. albicans strains that were engineered to mistranslate the CUG codon at constitutively elevated levels, in the pres...

Fusarium spp. are fungal pathogens of humans and plants. Fusarium oxysporum and Fusarium solani are important species isolated from infections such as onychomycosis, fungal keratitis, invasive infections, and disseminated diseases. These pathologies have a very difficult therapeutic management and p...
