Sterol compositions and susceptibilities to amphotericin B of environmental Cryptococcus neoformans isolates are changed by murine passage
1 Sept 1995
Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have shown that sequential isolates from patients with persistent Cryptococcus neoformans meningoencephalitis can vary in sterol composition and susceptibility to antifungal drugs. To investigate the potential of host factors as mediators of this phenomenon, we compared fungal susceptibilities of environmental and clinical isolates from a limited geographic area. Clinical isolates were less...
