Micafungin exposure drives multidrug resistance in <i>Clavispora lusitaniae</i>

2026-06-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Fungal infections are an escalating global health concern, with rare Candida species posing an urgent threat due to emerging multidrug resistance. Clavispora ( Candida ) lusitaniae is an uncommon pathogen in which multidrug resistance has been documented during antifungal therapy, yet the selective forces driving this phenotype remain unclear. Here, we show that exposure to the echinocandin...
