In vitro study of sequential fluconazole and caspofungin treatment against Candida albicans biofilms.

Semanti Sarkar1, Priya Uppuluri, Christopher G Pierce, Jose L Lopez-Ribot.   

Abstract

Candida albicans biofilms are generally considered to be resistant to azole antifungal agents but susceptible to echinocandins. We demonstrate that in a sequential therapy regimen, treatment with fluconazole first followed by caspofungin leads to a significant decrease of the efficacy of this echinocandin. Cellular stress responses induced by high fluconazole concentrations and mediated by Hsp90 and calcineurin play an important role in this phenomenon.
