    Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a serious opportunistic infection that mainly been found in individuals with a compromised immune system. As Aspergillus species worldwide and the increasing number of immunocompromised hosts, IA brings a heavy burden to our country. In addition, early diagnosis is difficult and effective treatments are lacking, which leaded to the high mortality of IA (39%~100%). Currently, further nationwide epidemiological research of IA is needed in China.

    Abstract670)      PDF (883KB)(183)       Save
    Terbinafine is an active allylamine antifungal agent with a mechanism of inhibiting squalene epoxidase in the fungal cell membrane. Its spectrum of in vitro fungicidal activity includes a broad range of dermatophyte, filamentous, dimorphic fungi, and some yeast species. Terbinafine had been widely used as the first-line treatment for superficial dermatophyte infection. In nearly two decades, terbinafine also had been proved to be highly effective and safe for a variety of subcutaneous and deep fungal infections, either in monotherapy or in combination therapy.

    Objective To determine the growth characteristics of Aspergillus fumigatus in different nutrient media and temperature.Methods Growth curves were used to determine the optimum medium, optimum and maximum growth temperatures for two strains of Aspergillus fumigatus:colony counts were used to determine the fatal temperatures for them.Results Three different nutrient media, yeast extract medium (YG), minimal medium (MM) and yeast nitrogen base (YNB), were tested. YG medium was the optimum medium for measuring the growth curves of Aspergillus fumigatus; In YG medium, the optimum growth temperature for Aspergillus fumigatus was 37℃, and the maximum growth temperature was 52℃. The slower growth rates of strains were observed with gradually elevated temperature. Unexpectedly, the responses of these two strains to high temperature were different:one strain's growth became slower markedly at 48℃ than at 37℃ during log phase, while the other one grew at 48℃ as well as at 37℃ during log phase. The strains of Aspergillus fumigatus were dead when exposed to 65℃ lasting more than 180 min or 70℃ lasting more than 120 min.Conclusions The optimum and the maximum growth temperature for Aspergillus fumigatus were 37℃ and 52℃, respectively.The fatal condition for Aspergillus fumigatus was 65℃ lasting more than 180 min or 70℃ lasting more than 120 min.

    Objective To evaluate the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), β-tubulin gene (BenA) and calmodulin gene (CaM) sequence analysis in identification of clinical Aspergillus.Methods All 169 strains of Aspergillus collected from clinical patients were analyzed by ITS, BenA, CaM sequencing to obtain the species information with reference to the Genbank database.Results The tested strains were identified to species level with identification rates of 52.7% (89/169), 66.3% (112/169), 97.6% (165/169) and to genus level of 47.3% (80/169), 33.7% (57/169), 2.4% (4/169) by ITS, BenA and CaM, respectively.None of the three sequence markers failed in identification of Aspergillus.Conclusion ITS, BenA and CaM can be used to identify clinical Aspergillus.Among them, CaM is the most efficient molecular marker for Aspergillus identification.

    Abstract167)      PDF (1084KB)(153)       Save
    Objective To construct the TFP1 gene knockout strains of Candida albicans and analyze the relationship between TFP1 gene and genes related to calcineurin pathway. Methods The upstream and downstream flanking sequences of TFP1 gene and the screened markers were connected to form the gene knockout fragments through fusion PCR, and then transferred into Candida albicans SN152 by lithium acetate transfection method. TFP1+/- strains were then screened out. The second allele was knocked out by the same method. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to detect the expression levels of RTA2 and CRZ1 genes of TFP1-/- strain, TFP1+/- strain and SN152 strain. Results The Candida albicans SN152 TFP1-/- double allelic deletion strains were successfully constructed, and the expression levels of RTA2 and CRZ1 genes in the SN152 TFP1-/- strains were both decreased. Conclusion TFP1 gene of Candida albicans is related to calcineurin pathway.

    Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMZ) combined with caspofungin in the treatment of Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). Methods PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, CBM, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP were searched for clinical randomized controlled trials of TMP/SMZ combined with caspofungin in the treatment of PJP, and Meta-analysis was performed. The outcome indicators were total effective rate, incidence of adverse reactions Statistical analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. Results A total of 20 studies were included, involving 1 802 PJP patients. Meta-analysis results showed that compared with TMP/SMZ monotherapy, the effective rate of TMP/SMZ combined with caspofungin in the treatment of PJP was significantly improved, [RR =1.29, 95% CI (1.22,1.37),P< 0.00001], and no Increase the incidence of adverse drug reactions [RR =0.91,95% CI(0.79, 1.05),P=0.21>0.05]. Conclusion The effect of TMP/SMZ combined with caspofungin in the treatment of PJP is better than that of TMP/SMZ monotherapy, without increasing adverse drug reactions, and it is recommended for clinical use.

    Glucocorticoids and invasive fungal infections:a review
    HAO Fei, WANG Li, ZHOU Cun-jian
    Chinese Journal of Mycology    2012, 7 (6): 367-371.  
    Abstract1624)      PDF (796KB)(1744)       Save

    It is well-known that hyperglucocorticoids play an important role in inducing the fungal infection,especially opportunistic fungal infection,which is attributed to the complex dysregulation of immunity caused by glucocorticoids.The patients, both those with endogenous Cushing's syndrome and, those receiving exogenous glucocorticoid therapy, are especially at risk of invasive fungal infections. A better knowledge of the interplay between glucocorticoid-induced immunosuppression and invasive fungal infections should assist in earlier recognition and establishment of specific prevention and treatment strategies in order to improve outcomes of such infections.

    Pattern regcognition receptors and signaling pathways in Cryptococcus neoformans
    LI Ying-fang, PAN Wei-hua
    Chinese Journal of Mycology    2016, 11 (1): 58-61.  
    Abstract1072)      PDF (839KB)(1183)       Save

    Pattern recognition receptors(PRRs) presented on the surface of host innate immune cells recognize the pathogen-associated molecular patterns(PAMPs) of Cryptococcus neoformans after the invasion,which will trigger downstream sinaling pathways and activate nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB) in immune cells,ultimately initiating innate and adaptive immunity,inducing the release of correlative inflammatory factors,activating adaptive immune cells such as Th1,Th2,Th17 cells,recruiting macrophage to eliminate Cryptococcus neoformans.Deep insights into PRRs and downstream pathways will contribute to obtain an overall understanding of immune adjustment and provide superior clinical therapys.
