Development and Validation of an In Vitro Resazurin-Based Susceptibility Assay against Madurella mycetomatis

S. O. Abd Algaffar et al.

Summary: An in vitro susceptibility assay for Madurella mycetomatis hyphae using resazurin for endpoint reading was presented, with itraconazole and posaconazole showing the lowest MICs. Results were comparable to a XTT-based susceptibility assay, showing less effectiveness for amphotericin B, micafungin, and terbinafine.

In vitro susceptibility testing for black grain eumycetoma causative agents

Wendy W. J. van de Sande

Summary: Eumycetoma is a neglected tropical disease characterized by subcutaneous swellings caused by fungal infection. In vitro susceptibility assays have been developed for causative agents, mainly used for determining inhibition of growth by antifungal agents. However, a clear correlation between in vitro inhibition and therapeutic efficacy has not been established, requiring further research.

Niclosamide Is Active In Vitro against Mycetoma Pathogens

Abdelhalim B. Mahmoud et al.

Summary: Redox-active drugs are key in parasite chemotherapy, and the study found that niclosamide showed significant activity against Madurella mycetomatis and Actinomadura spp. Further evaluation of salicylanilides, particularly niclosamide, is proposed as drug repurposing candidates for mycetoma treatment.

Actinomycetoma by Actinomadura madurae: Clinical characteristics and treatment of 47 cases

Alexandro Bonifaz et al.

Summary: This retrospective study analyzed 47 cases of actinomycetoma, finding that the foot was the most affected region with a high rate of bone invasion. The most commonly used and effective treatment scheme was found to be streptomycin + sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim with dapsone, resulting in a 63% clinical and mycological cure rate.
