Abstract
The World Health Organization designates lidocaine as an essential medicine in healthcare, greatly increasing the probability of human exposure. Its use has been associated with ROS generation and neurotoxicity. Physiological and metabolomic alterations, and genetics leading to the clinically observed adverse effects have not been temporally characterized. To study alterations that may lead to these undesirable effects, Saccharomyces cerevisiae grown on aerobic carbon sources to stationary phase was assessed over 6h. Exposure of an LC50 dose of lidocaine, increased mitochondrial depolarization and ROS/RNS generation assessed using JC-1, ROS/RNS specific probes, and FACS. Intracellular calcium also increased, assessed by ICP-MS. Measurement of the relative ATP and ADP concentrations indicates an initial 3-fold depletion of ATP suggesting an alteration in the ATP:ADP ratio. At the 6h time point the lidocaine exposed population contained ATP concentrations roughly 85% that of the negative control suggesting the surviving population adapted its metabolic pathways to, at least partially restore cellular bioenergetics. Metabolite analysis indicates an increase of intermediates in the pentose phosphate pathway, the preparatory phase of glycolysis, and NADPH. Oxidative stress produced by lidocaine exposure targets aconitase decreasing its activity with an observed decrease in isocitrate and an increase citrate. Similarly, increases in α-ketoglutarate, malate, and oxaloacetate imply activation of anaplerotic reactions. Antioxidant molecule glutathione and its precursor amino acids, cysteine and glutamate were greatly increased at later time points. Phosphatidylserine externalization suggestive of early phase apoptosis was also observed. Genetic studies using metacaspase null strains showed resistance to lidocaine induced cell death. These data suggest lidocaine induces perpetual mitochondrial depolarization, ROS/RNS generation along with increased glutathione to combat the oxidative cellular environment, glycolytic to PPP cycling of carbon generating NADPH, obstruction of carbon flow through the TCA cycle, decreased ATP generation, and metacaspase dependent apoptotic cell death.

Abstract
Clinical usage of lidocaine, a pro-oxidant has been linked with severe, mostly neurological complications. The mechanism(s) causing these complications is independent of the blockade of voltage-gated sodium channels. The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae lacks voltage-gated sodium channels, thus provides an ideal system to investigate lidocaine-induced protein and pathway alterations. Whole-proteome alterations leading to these complications have not been identified. To address this, S. cerevisiae was grown to stationary phase and exposed to an LC50 dose of lidocaine. The differential proteomes of lidocaine treatment and control were resolved 6 h post exposure using 2D DIGE. Amine reactive dyes and carbonyl reactive dyes were used to assess protein abundance and protein oxidation, respectively. Quantitative analysis of these dyes (⩾ 1.5-fold alteration, p ⩽ 0.05) revealed a total of 33 proteoforms identified by MS differing in abundance and/or oxidation upon lidocaine exposure. Network analysis showed enrichment of apoptotic proteins and cell wall maintenance proteins, while the abundance of proteins central to carbohydrate metabolism, such as triosephosphate isomerase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and redox proteins superoxide dismutase and peroxiredoxin were significantly decreased. Enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism, such as phosphoglycerate kinase and enolase, the TCA cycle enzyme aconitase, and multiple ATP synthase subunits were found to be oxidatively modified. Also, the activity of aconitase was found to be decreased. Overall, these data suggest that toxic doses of lidocaine induce significant disruption of glycolytic pathways, energy production, and redox balance, potentially leading to cell malfunction and death.

Abstract
Drug-induced inhibition of fungal growth is used in the diagnostic laboratory to predict therapeutic efficacy but is relatively slow, and determination of endpoints can be problematic. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy identifies the metabolic complement of microorganisms while monitoring utilization of constituents of the incubation medium. This technique may provide a rapid and objective indicator of antifungal effects. We evaluated the effects of caspofungin, amphotericin B (AMB), and voriconazole on metabolic profiles of yeast species cultured in RPMI-2% glucose-morpholinepropanesulfonic acid buffer in microtiter plates in a proof-of-principle study. 1H NMR spectra were obtained using Bruker NMR spectrometers at 1H frequencies of 600 and 360 MHz. Metabolites were identified by two-dimensional correlation NMR spectra, and relative peak integrals were calculated from one-dimensional 1H NMR spectra. MICs were determined by a modification of the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute broth microdilution method M27-A. Utilization of glucose and branched-chain and aromatic amino acid substrates was accompanied by fungal production of acetate, acetaldehyde, ethanol, formate, fumarate, glycerol, lactate, pyruvate, and succinate. Clear-cut metabolic endpoints indicating a greater than 50% reduction in substrate utilization and fungal metabolite production which correlated with MICs were noted at 16 and 24 h for all three drugs. At 8 h, reductions of greater than 50% for selected metabolites were noted for caspofungin and AMB. Direct NMR-based observation of metabolic alterations in yeast cultures reveals changes in key metabolic pathways and should be evaluated formally as a rapid technique for determining susceptibility to antifungal drugs.

Abstract
A modified fluorescein diacetate (FDA) assay has been compared with standard NCCLS broth macrodilution and broth microdilution methods for the detection of antifungal activity. The FDA assay was performed in a medium containing bacteriological peptone, NaCl, yeast extract and glucose (0.2%, 0.1%, 0.1% and 1% w/v, respectively) and buffered with 10 mM BES buffer. The MICs of amphotericin B, fluconazole, miconazole and flucytosine (representing three major classes of antifungal agents) obtained by the three methods were compared. The results obtained with the FDA assays correlated well with the NCCLS macrodilution method for MICs of amphotericin B, miconazole and fluconazole, but not for flucytosine. However, the MIC values of flucytosine obtained with the FDA assay were well within the quality control range for the two reference strains recommended by the NCCLS. The FDA assay described is an attractive alternative to the NCCLS methods for screening for antifungal agents, with the added advantage of objectivity of fluorescence measurement.

Diagn Microbiol Infect Dis 2005; 51:19-29.

Abstract
This article reported the identification of heat shock protein 90 (hsp90) homologues by immunoblot in Cryptococcus neoformans. Mycograb, a genetically recombinant antibody against hsp90, was evaluated against 8 clinical isolates and the National External Quality Assessment Service for Microbiology strain of C. neoformans alone and in combination with amphotericin B, caspofungin, and fluconazole by checkerboard assay. At the end point of an optically clear well, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) 0's ranged from 256 to 1024 microg/mL for Mycograb, from 0.5 to 1 microg/mL for amphotericin B, and from 16 to 32 microg/mL for caspofungin. The combination of Mycograb and amphotericin B produced a fractional inhibitory concentration index from 0.27 to 0.56, indicating a mainly synergistic effect, whereas for caspofungin, it varied from 0.5 to 2. At an end point of > or =50% inhibition, the MIC-2s varied from 16 to 128 microg/mL for Mycograb and from 0.125 to 16 microg/mL for fluconazole. The fractional inhibitory concentration index classified the combination as indifferent for 5 isolates, additive for 3 more isolates, and synergistic in a single isolate. Time-kill analysis on 2 isolates (F/7844 and F/10156), which had synergistic and additive results with amphotericin B, respectively, on checkerboard was performed with 4-16 microg/mL of Mycograb, 2-8 microg/mL of fluconazole, and 0.0625-2 microg/mL of amphotericin B. This demonstrated an increasingly static effect with augmenting concentrations of fluconazole and an initial static effect with amphotericin B at lower concentrations, which became fungicidal as the level of drug increased. The addition of either 4 or 8 microg/mL of Mycograb to 0.5 microg/mL of amphotericin B with C. neoformans F/7844 changed a static effect to a fungicidal effect at 8 h with an increased killing of 1.2 logs at 48 h. With C. neoformans F/10156, the addition of 16 microg/mL of Mycograb to 0.25 microg/mL of amphotericin B produced a difference in killing from 1 logarithm after 4 h to 1.5 logarithms after 48 h. These data suggest that the combination of amphotericin B and Mycograb would be worth exploring in the treatment of infection due to C. neoformans.
