OCA16. Annotation of the output in EnglishIn contrast to comprehensively investigated antibacterial activity of snake venoms, namely crude venoms and their selected components, little is known about antifungal properties of elapid snake venoms. In the present study, the proteome of two venoms of red spitting cobraNaja pallida(NPV) and Mozambique spitting cobraNaja mossambica(NMV) was characterized using LC-MS/MS approach, and the antifungal activity of crude venoms against threeCandidaspecies was established. A complex response to venom treatment was revealed. NPV and NMV, when used at relatively high concentrations, decreased cell viability ofC. albicansandC. tropicalis, affected cell cycle ofC. albicans, inhibitedC. tropicalis-based biofilm formation and promoted oxidative stress inC. albicans,C. glabrataandC. tropicaliscells. NPV and NMV also modulated ammonia pulses during colony development and aging in threeCandidaspecies. All these observations provide evidence that NPV and NMV may diminish selected pathogenic features ofCandidaspecies. However, NPV and NMV also promoted the secretion of extracellular phospholipases that may facilitateCandidapathogenicity and limit their usefulness as anti-candidal agents. In conclusion, antifungal activity of snake venoms should be studied with great caution and a plethora of pathogenic biomarkers should be considered in the future experiments.
