Amphotericin B formulations variably enhance antifungal activity of human neutrophils and monocytes against Fusarium solani: comparison with Aspergillus fumigatus.

Objectives: Lipid formulations of amphotericin B (AMBF) are widely used in the treatment of life-threatening infections caused by Aspergillus fumigatus and Fusarium solani. We aimed to compare the immunomodulatory effects of four AMBF, deoxycholate (DAMB), liposomal (LAMB), lipid complex (ABLC) and colloidal dispersion (ABCD), on the oxidative antifungal activities of human neutrophils (PMNs) and monocytes (MNCs) against hyphae of A. fumigatus and F.
