Antiretroviral drugs saquinavir and ritonavir reduce inhibitory concentration v...
Brilhante, Raimunda Sâmia Nogueira; Caetano, Érica Pacheco; Riello, Giovanna Barbosa Riello; Guedes, Glaucia Morgana de MeloRecent studies have shown that some drugs that are not routinely used to treat fungalinfections have antifungal activity, such as protease inhibitor antiretroviral drugs. This studyinvestigated the in vitro susceptibility of Histoplasma capsulatum var. capsulatum to saquinavirand ritonavir, and its combination with the antifungal itraconazole. The susceptibility assaywas performed according to Clinical and Labo...

Brilhante, Raimunda Sâmia Nogueira; Marques, Natalya Fechine Silva; Castelo-Branco, Débora de Souza Collares Maia; Lima, Rita Amanda Chaves deSporotrichosis is a subacute or chronic subcutaneous infection, caused by the fungus Sporothrix schenkii complex, occurring in human and animal tissues. Potassium iodide and itraconazole have been used as effective therapy for first-choice treatment, while am- photericin B may be indicated for disseminated infection. However, the adverse effects of potassium iodide and amphotericin B or the long duration of the...
Evidence of fluconazole-resistant Candida species in tortoises and sea turtles
Brilhante, Raimunda Sâmia Nogueira; Rodrigues, Pedro Henrique de Aragão; Alencar, Lucas Pereira de; Riello, Giovanna Barbosa; Ribeiro, Joyce FontelesThe aim of this study was to evaluate the antifungal susceptibility of Candida spp. recovered from tortoises ( Chelonoidis spp.) and sea turtles ( Chelonia mydas , Caretta caretta , Lepidochelys oli- vacea , Eretmochelys imbricata ). For this purpose, material from the oral cavity and cloaca of 77 animals (60 tortoises and 17 sea turtles) was collected. The collected specimens were seeded on 2 % Sabouraud dextr...
Easy storage strategies for sporothrix spp. strains
Brilhante, Raimunda Sâmia Nogueira; Silva, Natalya Fechine; Lima, Rita Amanda Chaves de; Caetano, Érica Pacheco; Alencar, Lucas Pereira deThe present study evaluated the maintenance of Sporothrix spp. (6 Sporothrix brasiliensis;6S. schenckii;5 S. mexicana, and 3 S. globosa) in saline at 4 C, and in 10% glycerol plus either 10% lactose or 10% sucrose, at -20 C and -80 C. Viability was assessed after 3, 6, and 9 months of storage, through the recovery of strains on potato dextrose agar and analysis of macro- and micromorphological features. Conidiu...
Detection of Candida species resistant to azoles in the microbiota of rheas (Rh...
Brilhante, Raimunda Sâmia Nogueira; Alencar, Lucas Pereira de; Cordeiro, Rossana de Aguiar; Castelo-Branco, Débora de Souza Collares MaiaThere is growing interest in breeding rheas (Rhea americana) in Brazil. However, there are no data on the yeast microbiota of the gastrointestinal tract of this avian species, and the phenotypic characteristics of these yeasts are not known. Therefore, the aim of this work was to isolate Candida species from the digestive tract of rheas and to evaluate the in vitro antifungal susceptibility and secretion of pho...
Farnesol against Coccidioides posadasii : its effect on growth, ergosterol
Brilhante, Raimunda Sâmia Nogueira; Lima, Rita Amanda Chaves de; Caetano, Erica Pacheco; Leite, João Jaime GiffoniCoccidioidomycosis is a systemic mycosis caused by the dimorphic fungi Coccidioides spp. The treatment for chronic and/or disseminated coccidioidomycosis can be prolonged and complicated. Therefore, the search for new drugs is necessary. Farnesol is a precursor in the sterol biosynthesis pathway that has been shown to present antifungal activity. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the in vitro an...
