摘要
Antifungal effects of iron chelators (lactoferrin, deferoxamine, deferiprone, and ciclopirox) were tested alone and in combination with antifungal drugs against Aspergillus fumigatus B5233 conidia. Lactoferrin, ciclopirox, and deferiprone inhibited whereas deferoxamine enhanced fungal growth. Antifungal synergy against conidia was observed for combinations of ketoconazole with ciclopirox or deferiprone, lactoferrin with amphotericin B, and fluconazole with deferiprone. Iron chelation alone or combined with antifungal drugs may be useful for prevention and treatment of mycosis.
