Batzelladine D, a Marine Natural Product, Reverses the Fluconazole Resistance Phenotype Mediated by Transmembrane Transporters in Candida albicans and Interferes with Its Biofilm: An In Vitro and In Silico Study.

Abstract excerpt

Numerous Candida species are responsible for fungal infections; however, Candida albicans stands out among the others. Treatment with fluconazole is often ineffective due to the resistance phenotype mediated by transmembrane transporters and/or biofilm formation, mechanisms of resistance commonly found in C. albicans strains. A previous study by our group demonstrated that batzelladine D can inhibit the Pdr5p...
