Genotypic and phenotypic characterization of candida albicans Lebanese hospital isolates resistant and sensitive to caspofungin. (c2018) حسب Toutounji, Maggie Nazih

"…Chitin content analysis showed that caspofungin resistant strains had elevated levels of chitin resulting in cell wall thickening that counters the effect of caspofungin, while sensitive strains showed decreased chitin content. Our results demonstrate an inverse correlation between resistance and virulence whereby resistance is due to thickening of the cell wall preventing the cell from gaining virulence attributes, while a more susceptible cell wall increases susceptibility to drugs but allows increased virulence.…"
