We have investigated the molecular mechanisms of resistance to azoles in\n                    <jats:italic>C. albicans<\/jats:italic>\n                    strains displaying high-level fluconazole resistance (MICs, \u226564 \u03bcg\/ml) isolated from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients with oropharyngeal candidiasis. The levels of expression of genes encoding lanosterol 14\u03b1-demethylase (\n                    <jats:italic>ERG11<\/jats:italic>\n                    ) and efflux transporters (\n                    <jats:italic>MDR1<\/jats:italic>\n                    and CDR) implicated in azole resistance were monitored in matched sets of susceptible and resistant isolates. In addition,\n                    <jats:italic>ERG11<\/jats:italic>\n                    genes were amplified by PCR, and their nucleotide sequences were determined in order to detect point mutations with a possible effect in the affinity for azoles. The analysis confirmed the multifactorial nature of azole resistance and the prevalence of these mechanisms of resistance in\n                    <jats:italic>C. albicans<\/jats:italic>\n                    clinical isolates exhibiting frank fluconazole resistance, with a predominance of overexpression of genes encoding efflux pumps, detected in 85% of all resistant isolates, being found. Alterations in the target enzyme, including functional amino acid substitutions and overexpression of the gene that encodes the enzyme, were detected in 65 and 35% of the isolates, respectively. Overall, multiple mechanisms of resistance were combined in 75% of the isolates displaying high-level fluconazole resistance. These results may help in the development of new strategies to overcome the problem of resistance as well as new treatments for this condition.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1128\/aac.45.10.2676-2684.2001","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2002,7,27]],"date-time":"2002-07-27T06:06:42Z","timestamp":1027750002000},"page":"2676-2684","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":414,"title":["Prevalence of Molecular Mechanisms of Resistance to Azole Antifungal Agents in\n                    <i>Candida albicans<\/i>\n                    Strains Displaying High-Level Fluconazole Resistance Isolated from Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected Patients"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"45","author":[{"given":"Sofia","family":"Perea","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 1-->Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio,1 and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jose\u0301 L.","family":"Lo\u0301pez-Ribot","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 1-->Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio,1 and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"William R.","family":"Kirkpatrick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 1-->Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio,1 and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Robert K.","family":"McAtee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 1-->Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio,1 and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rebecca A.","family":"Santilla\u0301n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 1-->Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio,1 and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marcos","family":"Mart\u0131\u0301nez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 1-->Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio,1 and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Calabrese","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 2-->Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois, Lausanne, Switzerland2"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dominique","family":"Sanglard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 2-->Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois, Lausanne, Switzerland2"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Thomas F.","family":"Patterson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 1-->Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio,1 and"},{"name":"<!--label omitted: 3-->Audie L.
