The increased mean expressions of the CDR1 and MDR1 genes had a greater effect on fluconazole resistance among the drug-resistant strains of C. albicans in chemotherapy patients. It seemed that the accumulation of chemotherapeutic drugs in this organism stimulated some regulatory factors and increased the expression of these two genes and ultimately helped to further increase their expression and resistance to fluconazole.
