Candida Albicans Biofilms

ABSTRACT Most manifestations of candidiasis are associated with biofilm formation on biological or inanimate surfaces. Candida albicans biofilms are recalcitrant to treatment with conventional antifungal therapies. Here we report on the activity of caspofungin, a new semisynthetic echinocandin, against C. albicans biofilms. Caspofungin displayed potent in vitro activity against sessile C. albicans cells within biofilms, with MICs at which 50% of the sessile cells were inhibited well within the drug's therapeutic range. Scanning electron microscopy and confocal scanning laser microscopy were used to visualize the effects of caspofungin on preformed C. albicans biofilms, and the results indicated that caspofungin affected the cellular morphology and the metabolic status of cells within the biofilms. The coating of biomaterials with caspofungin had an inhibitory effect on subsequent biofilm development by C. albicans. Together these findings indicate that caspofungin displays potent activity against C. albicans biofilms in vitro and merits further investigation for the treatment of biofilm-associated infections.

Studies were conducted to test if dicamba reduces haloxyfop herbicidal activity and to determine if this interaction by auxin-type herbicides or bentazon was caused by preventing the haloxyfop-induced inhibition of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase). Addition of dicamba at concentrations of 2.17 or 4.34 mM reduced haloxyfop activity on tall fescue shoots. Haloxyfop at 14 to 20 μM inhibited the activity of ACCase in cell-free extracts from tall fescue by nearly 50%. Dicamba did not prevent the inhibitory effect of haloxyfop on ACCase activity in these cell-free enzyme preparations. Dicamba alone at concentrations as high as 3.2 mM had no significant effect on the in vitro activity of the enzyme. Bentazon concentrations up to 10 mM did not prevent haloxyfop inhibition of ACCase activity. Bentazon alone or mixed with haloxyfop significantly inhibited ACCase activity at bentazon concentrations starting at 1 mM with near 40% inhibition at 10 mM. of the numerous possible explanations for the interference of dicamba or bentazon with haloxyfop action, interaction directly at the enzyme level appears to have been eliminated.
