Ibuprofen reverts antifungal resistance onCandida albicansshowing overexpression of CDR genes
30 Mar 2009
Abstract excerpt
Several mechanisms may be associated with Candida albicans resistance to azoles. Ibuprofen was described as being able to revert resistance related to efflux activity in Candida. The aim of this study was to uncover the molecular base of antifungal resistance in C. albicans clinical strains that could be reverted by ibuprofen. Sixty-two clinical isolates and five control strains of C. albicans were studied: the...
