Abstract excerpt
Azoles are widely used antifungals; however, their efficacy is compromised by fungistatic activity and selection of resistant strains during treatment. Recent studies demonstrated roles for the protein kinase C and calcium signaling pathways in modulating azole activity. Here we explored a role for the signaling pathway mediated by cyclic AMP (cAMP), which is synthesized by the regulated action of adenylate...
