Background: Candida auris, a medically multidrug-resistant fungal pathogen, has recently emerged as the primary one that poses a global public health threat. Although C. auris was first described in Japan, numerous cases of C.

Introduction: Dermatophytosis, a cutaneous fungal infection worldwide, is generally localised to the skin's superficial layers and keratinised structures. Although most agents are susceptible to current antifungal drugs available in clinical settings, frequent relapses and failures, especially in cases due to Trichophyton indotineae, have been frequently reported. Therefore, alternative targets and therapeutic approaches are highly required.

Background: The emergence of resistance in dermatophytes underscores the necessity for developing novel and alternative treatment options.

Methods: The present study aimed to evaluate the in vitro activity of nanoliposomal amphotericin B against a large panel of terbinafine-resistant Trichophyton indotineae isolates. In vitro susceptibility testing of nanoliposomal amphotericin B and comparators against 50 clinical isolates of terbinafine-resistant T.

In recent years, the widespread emergence of drug resistance in yeasts and filamentous fungi to existing antifungal armamentariums has become a severe threat to global health. There is also concern regarding increased rates of azole resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus and Terbinafine resistance in Trichophyton species. To overcome this concern of resistance to regular therapies, new antifungal drugs with novel and effective mechanisms are crucially needed.

, an emerging non- multidrug-resistant yeast, has become a significant cause of invasive candidiasis in healthcare settings. So far, data on the metabolites of in different clades are minimal, and no studies have focused on clade V metabolites. Therefore, Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used for the metabolomic profiling of clade I compared with fluconazole-resistant and susceptible in clade V strains.
