In vitro interaction between glabridin and voriconazole against Aspergillus fumigatus isolates.

Background: Voriconazole (VRC) is widely recommended as the first-line therapy for invasive aspergillosis. However, surveillance studies have demonstrated that there is an increase in the frequency of azole resistance among Aspergillus fumigates isolates. In recent years, more studies on effective synergisms between natural agents and antifungal drugs have been published.

Echinocandin resistance in Candida parapsilosis sensu stricto: Role of alterations in CHS3, FKS1 and Rho gene expression.

Objectives: The rate of resistance of Candida parapsilosis to echinocandins remains unexplored in Iran. The main aims of this study were to investigate the susceptibility patterns and possible mechanisms of echinocandin resistance in echinocandin-resistant clinical C. parapsilosis isolates in Iran.

High prevalence of itraconazole resistance among isolated from Iran.

Background And Purpose: Candida parapsilosis isolates usually have a low minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against azoles. Although Candida parapsilosis isolates usually have low MICs against azoles, recent studies candida invasive infections due to azole resistant-C. parapsilosis isolates .
