This study demonstrates a role for superoxide dismutases (Sods) in governing tolerance ofCandida albicansbiofilms to amphotericin B (AmB). Coincubation ofC. albicansbiofilms with AmB and the Sod inhibitors N,N′-diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC) or ammonium tetrathiomolybdate (ATM) resulted in reduced viable biofilm cells and increased intracellular reactive oxygen species levels as compared to incubation of biofilm cells with AmB, DDC, or ATM alone. Hence, Sod inhibitors can be used to potentiate the activity of AmB againstC. albicansbiofilms.
