In an established Candida albicans murine keratitis model, combination therapy with ophthalmic preparations of fluconazole and cyclosporine A (CsA) demonstrated in vivo drug synergy and effectively resolved wild-type C. albicans infection more rapidly than monotherapy with either drug. Calcineurin, the target of CsA, was also found to contribute to pathogenicity.
在已建立的白色念珠菌小鼠角膜炎模型中,氟康唑和环孢素A(CsA)的眼科制剂联合治疗显示出体内药物协同作用,并且比单用任何一种药物更迅速有效地解决了野生型白色念珠菌感染。CsA的靶标钙调神经磷酸酶也被发现与致病性有关。
