概括
系统性抗叶酸治疗佩米特雷克塞德或美托特雷克塞特并不会增加癌症患者抗可纳耐药酵母菌殖民或感染的风险. 在体外耐药性并不转化为体外临床风险.
科学领域:
- 医学真菌学 医学真菌学
- 抗真菌耐药性 抗真菌耐药性
- 癌症治疗方法 癌症治疗方法
背景情况:
- 之前的体外研究表明,叶酸抗剂,如甲醇,可以诱导Candida物种对醇抗真菌剂的多药性耐药性.
- 抗瘤抗叶剂,如甲基和pemetrexed,用于癌症治疗.
- 在体外观察到的抗真菌耐药性在体内观察到的抗真菌耐药性的临床意义仍然不清楚.
研究的目的:
- 调查系统性抗叶酸治疗 (甲基或佩姆特雷克斯) 是否是产生抗可纳耐药酵母菌殖民或感染的风险因素.
- 评估抗叶酸治疗对内源酵母中醇耐药性发展的体内影响.
主要方法:
- 一项涉及44名接受高剂量抗叶酸治疗的癌症患者和48名没有接触抗叶酸的对照者的病例控制研究.
- 收集所有参与者的口腔拭子和临床数据.
- 对来自13种真菌菌株的109个真菌菌株进行隔离,鉴定和可纳敏感性测试.
主要成果:
- 在接受抗叶酸治疗的9.1%的患者和6.3%的对照患者中发现了抗黄素耐药的酵母分离物.
- 在两组之间,在抗可纳酵母的患病率上没有统计学上显著的差异.

Pharmacogenetics of Drug Targets: β₂-Adrenergic Receptors, Apo E, Thymidylate Synthase
Genetic polymorphisms in drug targets have emerged as critical determinants of interindividual variability in drug response and toxicity. Pharmacogenomic investigations increasingly focus on identifying these variations to personalize and optimize therapeutic interventions. A drug target may be a receptor, enzyme, or signaling protein involved in pharmacologic responses or disease-related pathways. While early pharmacogenetic studies focused primarily on drug metabolism, current research...
Antimicrobial Effectiveness
The effectiveness of antimicrobial agents depends on various factors influencing their ability to eliminate microbial populations. Larger microbial populations require more time for complete eradication, emphasizing the importance of population size analysis when evaluating antimicrobial efficacy.Microbial resistance to antimicrobial agents varies significantly. Highly resilient microorganisms include endospores, gram-negative bacteria, and non-enveloped viruses, while prions are exceptionally...
Antifungal Agents
Amphotericin B is a broad-spectrum antifungal agent that exploits structural differences between fungal and mammalian cell membranes. Its amphipathic structure—featuring a hydrophobic polyene-lactone ring and a hydrophilic region containing mycosamine and carboxylic acid groups—enables selective binding to ergosterol, a sterol predominantly found in fungal plasma membranes. This selective interaction underlies the drug’s antifungal activity, although weak binding to cholesterol contributes to...
