摘要

Aspergillus fumigatus is a human pathogenic fungus capable of causing life-threatening, invasive infections. The rise in antimycotic resistance creates an urgent need for new therapeutic approaches. Using the clinically applied antimycotics 5-fluorocytosine, itraconazole and amphotericin B as examples, we describe how proteomics can provide detailed insights into antifungal modes of action, induced resistance pathways, and cellular stress responses.
