真菌感染(Fungi Infection)約引致全球每年約二百萬人的死亡，而現今對抗真菌(Fungi)的藥物類別主要共分為三大類別。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUlz1UylBQ

（圖2）三大類別的藥物機制雖有不同，但最終目的均是透過破壞真菌的外層結構來抑制其生長。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96Rzf2IBTX

（圖3）然而，現今出現了某一類別的Candida auris，上述三款的藥物均對它無法作出顯著功效。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeI2lj61Ch

它能夠透過血液循環系統走進全身各部位，引發感染。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTQNZxrGec

就在2018年，英國急症室病人出現大規模Candida auris的感染，後來證實為共用探熱針所致（Ref1)。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsRrvquTwL

(圖4）有科學家近日發表文章（Ref2)，在居住在深海生物的微生物中分離出命名為Turbinmicin的天然物質。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTBrxYHw5w
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0lah9uim4
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbYqdEfRF9
Turbinmicin能有效抑制不同真菌品種，包括Candida auris。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83GQooCbDr
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdboTaERTa
它的機制乃為影響內部的蛋白質運輸，與現今三類抑制外圍結構的機制不同，可能因而能夠擊殺得到抵擋現今三大類藥物的Candida auris。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoQzRkZ98F
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwuMyB4UkY
它並不會對人體的紅血球造成傷害，高劑量的使用亦沒有對老鼠做成影響，同時亦能治理Candida auris在老鼠體內所引發的感染。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpAXHPQcRg

但會否引起副作用或其他問題，還需要進一步的研究確實後，才能開啟人類試驗。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2KK5oudXT

深海一直是未被深入發掘的領域，這一次找到對抗耐藥真菌曙光，日後可能會繼續有意想不到的驚喜。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHWqCbQCcb
