Role of matrix β-1,3 glucan in antifungal resistance of non-albicans Candida biofilms
Open accessAbstract
Candida biofilm infections pose an increasing threat in the health care setting due to the drug resistance associated with this lifestyle. Several mechanisms underlie the resistance phenomenon. In Candida albicans, one mechanism involves drug impedance by the biofilm matrix linked to β-1,3 glucan. Here, we show this is important for other Candida spp. We identified β-1,3 glucan in the matrix, found that the matrix sequesters antifungal drug, and enhanced antifungal susceptibility with matrix β-1,3 glucan hydrolysis.

C. glabrata biofilms display antifungal resistance and are characterized by a compact dense structure of yeast cells nested in an extracellular matrix composed of high levels of proteins and carbohydrates including β-1,3 glucan.
“C. glabrata biofilms display antifungal resistance, and are characterized by a compact dense structure of yeast cells nested in an extracellular matrix which is composed of high levels of proteins and carbohydrates including β-1,3 glucan [50,51,52].”
From Candida glabrata: A Lot More Than Meets the Eye (2019) · cites this paper as [52]
Biofilms prevent, to a greater or lesser extent, antifungal drug penetration through a diffusion barrier that acts as an ion-exchange resin binding charged antibiotic molecules, contributing to biofilm drug resistance including in C. glabrata.
“It is thought that biofilms prevent, to a greater or lesser extent, the penetration of antifungal drugs through their structure, by the establishment of a diffusion barrier, which acts as an ion-exchange resin, binding charged antibiotic molecules, contributing to biofilm drug resistance, including in the case of C. glabrata [44,150,155].”

Disruption of β-1,3-glucans or β-1,3-glucanase treatment increases biofilm susceptibility to fluconazole, and addition of exogenous β-1,3 glucans increases fluconazole resistance in planktonic cells.
“When induced, the disruption of β-1,3-glucans or a β-1,3-glucanase treatment have been shown to increase susceptibility of biofilms to fluconazole and the addition of exogenous β-1,3 glucans has been demonstrated to result in the rise of resistance to fluconazole in planktonic cells [155].”
From Candida glabrata Biofilms: How Far Have We Come? (2017) · cites this paper as [155]
Treatment of biofilms with β-1,3-glucanase increases the susceptibility of biofilms to fluconazole, and addition of exogenous β-1,3-glucans increases the tolerance of planktonic cells to fluconazole.
“Thus, treatment of biofilms with β-1,3-glucanase increases the susceptibility of biofilms to fluconazole (130), and addition of exogenous β-1,3-glucans increases the tolerance of planktonic cells to fluconazole (122).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
