Azole resistance in Cryptococcus gattii from the Pacific Northwest: Investigation of the role of ERG11.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 Nov 2013

Gast Charles E, Basso Luiz R, Bruzual Igor, Wong Brian

Abstract excerpt

Cryptococcus gattii is responsible for an expanding epidemic of serious infections in Western Canada and the Northwestern United States (Pacific Northwest). Some patients with these infections respond poorly to azole antifungals, and high azole MICs have been reported in Pacific Northwest C. gattii. In this study, multiple azoles (but not amphotericin B) had higher MICs for 25 Pacific Northwest C. gattii than for...
