Article Abstract
Background: The present systematic review aimed to investigate the drug susceptibility patterns of Iranian clinical isolates to antifungal drugs (azoles, polyenes, and echinocandins).
Methods: Six electronic databases including "PubMed," "Scopus," "Web of Science," "IranDoc", "SID", and "Magiran" were searched from May 2000 to June 2021. The susceptibility of 6322 strains from 19967 patients against 14 antifungal drugs was evaluated according to CLSI method.
Results: The pooled prevalence of antifungal resistance ranged from 0% to 26%. The lowest resistance levels among azoles were observed in luliconazole with a frequency of 0% and voriconazole of 3.94%.
Conclusion: Due to the emergence of multi-drug resistant rational drug prescription based on the anti-fungal stewardship strategy and therapeutic drug monitoring is warranted.

is an environmental opportunistic fungal pathogen, which can lead to invasive aspergillosis in immunocompromised individuals, and resistant to conventional antifungual agents has become a growing concern. This study investigated the antifungal activity and the molecular antifungal mechanisms of Cinnamaldehyde (CA) against , specifically its impact on metabolic pathways and protein metabolism. In susceptibility tests, CA was found to exhibit promising antifungal activity against in both solid and liquid culture (biomass) systems, with the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) determined as 40-80 μg/mL.

Cutaneous cryptococcosis is rarely caused by , especially in immunocompetent individuals. We report a unique case of perioral cutaneous infection in a 37-year-old male with scattered erythematous, pruritic, and scaly lesions lasting over a month. Initial clinical presentation mimicked common dermatological conditions, leading to potential misdiagnosis.

Microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa, significantly impact human health by causing infections that can lead to serious health issues, including mortality and morbidity. Antimicrobials, including antibacterials, anti-virals, anti-fungals, and anti-parasitics, effectively prevent and treat infections in humans and animals. However, pathogens have developed resistance to these antimicrobials, enabling them to survive and persist even in the presence of antibiotics.

Nonexpressor of pathogenesis-related genes 1 (NPR1) is a master regulator of salicylic acid (SA)- facilitated plant hormone signaling and plays a crucial role in plant defense through the activation of systemic acquired resistance (SAR). Although like genes are associated with stress responses in a variety of plant species, no thorough genome-wide investigation of these genes has been undertaken in pearl millet (). This study discovered seven -like genes on four pearl millet chromosomes (Chr1, Chr2, Chr4, and Chr6), which exhibit close affinity to NPRs from other plants and have common gene structures, conserved motifs, and domains.

The overreliance on traditional chemical fungicides, combined with the emergence of resistance, poses significant challenges for food safety. Early blight, caused by the fungal pathogen Alternaria solani (A. solani), is among the most significant contributors to pre- and postharvest yield losses in tomato cultivation.
