Abstract:
Introduction Fungi have been recognized as pathogens for many years. However, the incidence of fungal infections in the pediatric population has increased substantially due to the increased use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, immunosuppressive agents, hyperalimentation products, and central venous catheters in addition to the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) epidemic. The physician involved with the care of children should know the agents effective against these pathogens (Table 1). Amphotericin B has a long history of both efficacy and toxicity because it was the only available systemic agent for many years. With the introduction of ketoconazole, fluconazole, and itraconazole over the past decade, the decision of which agent to use has become much more difficult. Clinical trials are underway to help answer these questions, but until these are completed, the clinician must weigh the risks and benefits of therapy for each patient individually. Amphotericin B BACKGROUND Amphotericin B is entering its fourth decade as an antifungal agent. Since its introduction in the mid-1950s, it has been the cornerstone of management of systemic fungal infections. Even with the introduction of the azoles, it continues to be the treatment of choice for many conditions. CHEMISTRY, MECHANISM OF ACTION Streptomyces nodosus, a soil actinomycete, is the source of the amphotericins A and B. Amphotericin B is the commercially available product, and it may contain a small amount (<5%) of amphotericin A.

Abstract:
We reviewed the licensed antifungal drugs and summarized their mechanisms of action, pharmacological profiles, and susceptibility to specific fungi. Approved antimycotics inhibit 1,3-β-d-glucan synthase, lanosterol 14-α-demethylase, protein, and deoxyribonucleic acid biosynthesis, or sequestrate ergosterol. Their most severe side effects are hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and myelotoxicity. Whereas triazoles exhibit the most significant drug–drug interactions, echinocandins exhibit almost none. The antifungal resistance may be developed across most pathogens and includes drug target overexpression, efflux pump activation, and amino acid substitution. The experimental antifungal drugs in clinical trials are also reviewed. Siderophores in the Trojan horse approach or the application of siderophore biosynthesis enzyme inhibitors represent the most promising emerging antifungal therapies.

Abstract:
Fungal infections continue to emerge as an important cause of infectious disease and mortality in humans. Amphotericin B deoxycholate (ABD), was the first antifungal that was discovered, and it was released in 1958, and flucytosine, which was developed later and is effective against Candida and Cryptococcus, was introduced in 1978. The discovery of first-generation azoles (fluconazole and itraconazole) in the 1990s has created a new step in the treatment of fungi. In the years that followed, with the development of lipid formulations of amphotericin B, the introduction of second-generation azoles, and the release of the most recently developed class, echinocandins, the foundations of today’s existing antifungal classes were laid. This article is aimed to review the mechanism of action, side effects and clinical use indications of the main antifungal drugs used in the treatment of systemic fungal infections.

Abstract:
Fungal infections in man and animals have a significant impact on health. However, there are only a few antifungal agents available for treatment of invasive mycoses. Further understanding of fungal molecular pathogenesis in collaboration with biochemistry and molecular modeling strategies should be able to develop new selective fungicidal agents. An example of this approach is Cryptococcus neoformans, which is reviewed in this discussion, as a model system for identification of antifungal molecular targets. Key words: antifungals, fungi, treatment, cryptococcosis, molecular biology, targets.

Abstract:
AbstractThe high burden and growing prevalence of invasive fungal infections (IFIs), the toxicity and interactions associated with current antifungal drugs, as well as the increasing resistance, ask for the development of new antifungal drugs, preferably with a novel mode of action. Also, the availability of oral or once-weekly alternatives would enable ambulatory treatment resulting in an improved patient's comfort and therapy adherence. However, only one new azole and two new posaconazole-formulations were marketed over the last decade. This review focuses on the antifungal drugs in the pipeline undergoing clinical evaluation. First, the newest azole, isavuconazole, with its improved safety profile and reduction in DDIs, will be discussed. Moreover, there are two glucan synthase inhibitors (GSIs) in the antifungal pipeline: rezafungin (CD101), a long-acting echinocandin with an improved stability that enables once weekly administration, and SCY-078, an orally available GSI with efficacy against azole- and echinocandin resistant isolates. A new oral formulation of amphotericin B will also be presented. Moreover, the first representative of a new antifungal class, the orotomides, with a broad spectrum and no cross-resistance with current antifungal classes, will be discussed. Finally, an overview of other antifungals that are still in earlier clinical development phases, is provided.

Abstract:
There is an urgent need to improve the efficacy and range of antifungal drugs due to a global increase in invasive fungal infections, which are difficult to treat and are associated with high rates of mortality. Developing new drugs is expensive and time consuming and synergistic therapies that enhance the efficacy of current drugs are an alternative approach. Iron chelators have been used as antifungal synergents in salvage therapy, however, how these cause synergy are unknown. This thesis aims to use a transcriptomic approach to understand the mechanistic detail of antifungal-chelator synergy in the pathogen Cryptococcus to find potential antifungal targets. It focuses on amphotericin B (AMB) and lactoferrin (LF) synergy and voriconazole (VRC) and EDTA antagonism upon screening the interactions of various antifungal - chelator combinations in Cryptococcus. LF was found to enhance the antifungal effect of AMB in two ways: via the dysregulation of stress responses and metal homeostasis that disrupted the cell’s ability to mount an appropriate stress response, and by overwhelming the cell’s stress response via the cumulative strain from ER stress, disruption of transmembrane transport processes and increased metal dysregulation. Metal homeostasis was vital to both processes and the direct disruption of metal homeostasis, via deletion of iron (Aft1, Cir1 and HapX) and zinc (Zap1 and Zap104) regulating transcription factors, resulted in increased AMB susceptibility. Analysis of drug-binding domains in Zap1 and Zap104 found these to contain druggable sites and be potential antifungal drug targets. EDTA in the presence of VRC was found to disrupt mitochondrial functions along with an up-regulation of drug efflux genes, suggesting a potential mechanism of antagonism by mediating the efflux of intracellular VRC. Overall, metal regulation is important for resisting antifungal stress and is a potential antifungal strategy, where Zap1 is a potential antifungal drug target.

Abstract:
The adherence of three Candida species to human buccal epithelial cells (BECs) following treatment of the yeast with sub-inhibitory concentrations of amphotericin B, nystatin, miconazole nitrate, 5-fluorocytosine, octenidine and pirtenidine was investigated in vitro. Pre-incubation of C. albicans (two strains), C. tropicalis or C.kefyr with these antifungal drugs inhibited their adherence to varying degrees (reduction between 17% and 78% of the control value). Pre-treatment of yeast for a short period (l hr) had less effect on adhesion than pre-treatment for a long period (24 hr). Furthermore, treating C. albicans with a combination of amphotericin B plus 5-fluorocytosine, both at 1/8 MIC level, led to stronger adherence inhibition than that obtained for yeast pre-treated with either one alone at 1/4 MIC levels. In addition, the pre-treatment of either Candida or BECs or both types of cells with the drugs reduced adherence, the reduction being greatest when both types of cells were pre-treated. No difference in adherence between stationary or exponential phase yeast to BEC was observed and the drugs were effective in reducing the adherence of cells from either growth phase.

Por outro lado, o tratamento das micoses nem sempre é efetivo, pois os fármacos antifúngicos disponíveis apresentam espectro de atividade e perfil farmacocinético inadequados, em especial no tratamento das lesões cutâneas. Portanto, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi desenvolver e caracterizar sistemas nanoestruturados estabilizados com álcool cetílico etoxilado 20 OE e propoxilado 5 OP (PROC) contendo fluconazol (FLU), empregando ácido oléico (AO) e óleo de copaíba como fases oleosas. A caracterização química, seguida de ensaios biológicos, dos óleos de copaíba de diferentes fontes, foi determinante para a escolha do óleo a ser usado no desenvolvimento das formulações. A construção de diagramas de fases com ambos os óleos mostrou que diferentes sistemas como microemulsões (ME) e cristais líquidos (CL) podem ser formados. A caracterização físico-química (MLP, SAXS e Reologia) mostrou que na região de 40% de PROC, o aumento da quantidade de água favorece a formação de sistemas mais estruturados como CL de fase lamelar e hexagonal quando se utiliza AO e óleo de copaíba...

Abstract: In the last decades, there has been an expressive increase in incidence of fungal infections. On the other hand, the treatment of mycoses is not always effective, because available antifungal drugs show inappropriate activity spectrum and pharmacokinetic profile. The aim of this work was to develop and characterize nanostructured systems stabilized by propoxyl (5OP) ethoxyl (20 OE) cethyl alcohol (PROC) containing fluconazole, using oleic acid and copaiba oil from different origins as oily phases. Chemical and biological characterization of copaiba oils from different origins was decisive for the choice of oil to be used in the development of the formulations. The construction of phase diagrams with studied copaiba oils showed that different systems such as microemulsions (ME) and liquid crystals (CL) can be formed. The characterization by polarized light microscopy, rheological behavior and SAXS confirmed the results obtained in phase diagrams, showing that in the region of 40% of PROC, the increase in the quantity of water favors the formation of more structured systems as CL of lamellar and hexagonal phase...

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Pityriasis versicolor or Tinea versicolor is a skin disease caused by the Malassezia furfur which is often found in Indonesia. People can use anti-fungal drugs to treat this disease. However, long-term use of anti-fungal drugs is relatively more expensive and can have side effects for its users. Cocoa bean husk contains flavonoids, saponins, and alkaloids which have anti-fungal effects. This study aimed to determine the antifungal effectiveness of the cocoa bean husk extract on the growth of M. furfur. Subjects and Methods: This was an experimental study using cocoa bean husk extract with a concentration variance of 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, with a positive control for ketoconazole 2% and a negative control using distilled water. The test was carried out by the well diffusion method using Sabouraud Dextrose Agar media. The inhibition of fungal growth was calculated by looking at the clear zone formed after 48 hours. Data were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Post hoc Mann Whitney statistical tests. Results: The mean diameter of the inhibition zone at a concentration of 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% was 3.42 mm, 4.07 mm, 4.9 mm, and 7.3 mm, respectively, and it was statistically significant (p = 0.001). Conclusion: Cocoa bean husk extract has weak anti-fungal effectiveness at concentrations of 25%, 50%, and 75%, while at 100% it has moderate effectiveness.

Abstract:
Tetrahydropyrimidines (THPMs) attracted attention as a very important class of aza heterocycles with broad pharmacological activities during the past years. In many studies have been proven that THPMs have anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, antifungal, anti-HIV activity. Bearing in mind our interest in medicinal and Biginelli chemistry, we investigated interaction with important biomacromolecules (DNA, BSA) and our earlier synthetized THPMs derivatives with proven very good cytotoxic activity.[1] Investigation of affinity of compounds A and B (Figure 1) to bind to bovine serum albumin (BSA) is based on the fact that the efficiency of drugs depends on their ability to bind for carrier protein. Binding properties were investigated by using the fluorescence emission titration of BSA with A and B. The obtained values of Ka, which are in optimum range which is considered to be 106-107M-1 indicate that both compounds have great ability to bind to BSA. In addition, Ka values for A-BSA and B-BSAshow that both compounds are suitable for drug-cell

Abstract:
The synthesis of 2-[(1,3-diphenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl) dinitromethyl]-5,6,8,8a-tetrahydro-[1,2,4] oxadiazol[3,2-c][1,4] oxazine is caused by the reaction of morpholine interaction in the presence of hydrogen peroxide with 2-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)-2,2-dinitroacetonitrile and sodium tungstate in a catalytic amount. The latter interacts with an excess of KOH in ethanol to form the potassium salt aci-5-dinitromethyl-1,3-diphenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole and 5,6,8,8a-tetrahydro-[1,2,4] oxadiazole[3,2-c] [1,4] oxazine-2-ol. The ability of compounds 3-5 to inhibit the growth and development of museum strains of Staphylococcus aureus RP, E. coli O39, Pseudomonas aeruginosa 143 and clinical strain of Streptococcus pneumonia, as well as clinically significant species of fungi Trichophyton rubrum, Microsporumcanis and Candida albicans was investigated. It was revealed that the compounds have bacteriostatic activity against the studied bacterial strains: 3 and 4 expressed in a range of low concentrations. Compounds 3-5 demonstrate a fungistatic effect: compound 3 in a range of low concentrations. In relation to fungal strains, compounds 3-5 demonstrate a fungistatic effect: compound 3 in the range of low concentrations. Thus, as a result of the implementation of the "one pot" process, it is possible to embed oxadiazoline and oxazine cycles into the main (central) part of the compound 1 molecule, which leads to the synthesis of new drugs with antimicrobial and antifungal activity.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: Various bacteria and fungi colonize the skin surface of patients with AD. The colonized fungi mainly include Malassezia, non-Malassezia yeasts, and molds. Among them, Malassezia occupies 63%~86% of the fungal colonization community on the skin surface of AD patients. Although the relationship between the level of Malassezia on the skin surface and disease severity remains controversial, many studies have shown that the level of serum anti-Malassezia-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies in AD patients is related to the disease severity, especially in patients with AD in the head and neck. The specific mechanism by which Malassezia causes or aggravates AD is unclear, but damage to the skin barrier in AD patients is a key component of the mechanism. The presence of Malassezia on the skin also seems to change its barrier function, resulting in more Malassezia and its antigens colonizing the skin surface area that is exposed to the immune system. This produces a large number of specific IgE antibodies and cytokines to aggravate the disease.

Abstract:
Background &objectives: Candida species are emerging as a signicant pathogen certain species of Candida like Candida krusei are inherently resistant to azoles. In vitro susceptibility testing is essential for guiding therapy. The present study aims todetermine the antifungal susceptibility pattern ofNon albicansCandida isolates by disc diffusion and micro broth dilution method. Methods:This was a prospective study, conducted among 200 patients complaining of Vulvovaginal dischargeSpeciation was done as per standard microbiological methods. Non albicans Candida species were identied. Antifungal resistance was determined by disc diffusion method for uconazole, Voriconazole and by microbrothdilution for uconazole. Results: A total of 200 samples were collected from patients complaining of vaginal discharge . Out of them 69 were identied as Candida species , 31[44%] were C.albicans and 38 [56%] were non albicans Candida among them C.glabrata 22 (57%) , C.tropicalis 12 (31%), and 4 (10%) C.krusei. In the Interpretation and conclusion: present study, all the isolates of C. krusei 4 [10% ] tested showed resistance to uconazole by both disc diffusion and microbroth dilution methods . All isolates of C.glabrata 22 [ 57%] and C. tropicalis 12[31%] , tested were sensitive to uconazole by both disc diffusion and microbroth dilution . For voriconazole there was no resistance among all isolates tested by disc diffusion method. It is essential to perform susceptibility testing for all the Candida isolates for providing crucial information about the resistance pattern and help in choosing the appropriate antifungal drug for therapy. Disc diffusion method which is easy to perform can be utilized for day to day practice
