ABSTRACT
The multidrug resistance (MDR) ,characterized by the simultaneous acquisition of resistance to chemically and structurally different drugs ,has caused antifungal treatment failure .This review focused on recent progresses in under-standing of the multidrug resisitance associated drug efflux transporter superfamily in Saccharomyces cerevisiae ,the opportun-istic fungal pathogens Candida albicans ,Candida glabrata ,and Aspergillus fumigates ,along with the mechanisms underly-ing efflux pump and the regulatory networks involved .Investigation of these mechanisms and their impact on drug resistance may lead to strategies to overcome fungal multidrug resistance and improvement of drug efficacy .
