Reactive oxygen species-inducing itraconazole and its anti-biofilm activity against resistant Candida parapsilosis sensu lato biofilm cells isolated from patients with recalcitrant onychomycosis.
Candida parapsilosis was introduced as the second most responsible for nail involvement. The colonization of biotic and abiotic surfaces by Candida spp. can result in the formation of biofilms, which possess a high level of resistance to typical antifungal agents. Since Candida spp. can produce biofilm mass on the surface of the nails, dermatologists should consider appropriate antifungals to eliminate both the planktonic and biofilm cells. The aim of this research was to determine the antifungal efficacy of itraconazole against C. parapsilosis sensu lato biofilm formations, in addition to its static effects. Ten C. parapsilosis sensu lato isolates were enrolled in this study. The use of itraconazole results in the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during treatment. In order to verify the correlation between ROS and itraconazole-induced cell death, the viability of cells was analyzed by administering the ROS scavenger Ascorbic acid. The apoptotic features of itraconazole were analyzed using the Annexin V-FITC method. Based on current data, it was found that the generation of intracellular stresses by itraconazole is not observed in cells upon ROS inhibition, emphasizing the importance of intracellular ROS in the apoptotic mechanism of itraconazole. Targeting the oxidative defense system is a powerful point to use ROS-inducing antifungals as a superior choice for more effective therapies in case of recalcitrant onychomycosis.
期刊介绍:
Archives of Dermatological Research is a highly rated international journal that publishes original contributions in the field of experimental dermatology, including papers on biochemistry, morphology and immunology of the skin. The journal is among the few not related to dermatological associations or belonging to respective societies which guarantees complete independence. This English-language journal also offers a platform for review articles in areas of interest for dermatologists and for publication of innovative clinical trials.
