Background: Candida species are frequently isolated from the oral cavity of patients with cystic fibrosis. However, the information on the role of Candida in cystic fibrosis is scarce.
Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence, virulence profile and antifungal susceptibility of oral isolates of Candida albicans recovered from patients with cystic fibrosis.

Background: Scedosporium/Lomentospora species are ranked as the second most frequently isolated filamentous fungi from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Previously, we demonstrated that the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for voriconazole and posaconazole increased when performed on a mucin-containing synthetic CF sputum medium (SCFM) compared to the standard medium, RPMI-1640. In this study, we have expanded the MIC comparison to four additional azoles and investigated characteristics linked to azole resistance in Scedosporium apiospermum, Scedosporium minutisporum, Scedosporium aurantiacum and Lomentospora prolificans.

The Atlantic coastline of El-Jadida, Morocco, is renowned for its plentiful algae, especially brown seaweed, which is rich in active compounds known for their antifungal properties. This valuable resource offers an exciting opportunity to tackle the numerous challenges posed by invasive fungal infections, allergies, mycotoxin-related food poisoning, and drug-resistant strains. Underscoring the urgent need to explore alternative, sustainable, and environmentally friendly antifungal agents derived from algae.

The aim of this study was to investigate the catalytic activity of 26 Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) variants and drug interactions on imatinib metabolism in recombinant insect microsomes. This study was designed with an appropriate incubation system and carried out in the constant temperature water. By using ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) to measure the quantities of its metabolite N-desmethyl imatinib, to elucidate the impacts of the CYP3A4 genetic polymorphism and drug interactions on the metabolism of imatinib.
