1. DEVELOPMENT OF RESISTANCE TO POLYENE ANTIBIOTICS IN CANDIDA ALBICANS
E K HEBEKA, M SOLOTOROVSKY J Bacteriol. 1965 Jun;89(6):1533-9. doi: 10.1128/jb.89.6.1533-1539.1965.
Hebeka, Elias K. (Rutgers, The State University, New Brunswick, N.J.), and Morris Solotorovsky. Development of resistance to polyene antibiotics in Candida albicans. J. Bacteriol. 89:1533-1539. 1965.-Strains of Candida albicans resistant to the polyenes candidin and amphotericin B, but not to nystatin, were developed by sub-culturing the organism in gradually increasing concentrations of the antibiotic in broth on a shaker, or by repeated transfer on gradient plates. Demonstration of resistance on solid media was best observed when a purified agar, Ionagar no. 2 (Oxoid), was used in preparing the medium. Strains that were 150-fold resistant to candidin, and 4-, 16-, 45-, and 60-fold resistant to amphotericin B were developed. The degree of resistance depended on the strain, the type of medium, and, most importantly, on the antibiotic used. The polyenes candidin, amphotericin B, nystatin, and fungimycin and the nonpolyenes griseofulvin and eulicin were used to extend the scope of study of cross-resistance. Cells rendered resistant to candidin were also resistant to amphotericin B, but not to nystatin, fungimycin, or griseofulvin. Cells rendered resistant to amphotericin B showed cross-resistance to candidin, but not to nystatin, fungimycin, or griseofulvin. Candidinor amphotericin B-resistant strains were more sensitive to eulicin than their parent strains. Increased resistance to candidin or amphotericin B was accompanied by a decrease in virulence for mice, the rate of growth, the ability to reduce bismuth sulfite, and by an increased tendency for filamentation. No change in the ability to form chlamydospores was noticed.
