Eight highly expressed candidate genes were selected for mRNA profiling to monitor the transcriptome kinetics of Aspergillus fumigatus strains exposed to antifungal drugs as potential biomarkers of live cells to assess treatment efficacy. Mycelia were treated with fungicidal drugs amphotericin B and voriconazole, as well as the fungistatic drug micafungin. Transcription was monitored at 0, 4, 8, and 24 h posttreatment. The expression turnover profile provides a possible tool to assess antifungal therapy effects.
选择了 8 个高表达的候选基因进行 mRNA 谱分析,以监测暴露于抗真菌药物的烟曲霉菌株的转录组动力学,作为活细胞的潜在生物标志物来评估治疗效果。用杀真菌药物两性霉素 B 和伏立康唑以及抑菌药物米卡芬净处理菌丝体。在处理后 0、4、8 和 24 小时监测转录。表达周转率谱提供了一种评估抗真菌治疗效果的可能工具。
