Candida is an intractable life-threatening pathogen.Candida infection is extremely difficult to eradicate,and thus is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised individuals.Morevover,the rapid spread of drug-resistant fungi has led to significant decreases in the therapeutic effects of clinical drugs.New anti-Candida agents are urgently needed to solve the com-plicated medical problem.Natural products with intricate structures have attracted great attention of researchers who make every en-deavor to discover leading compounds for antifungal agents.Their novel mechanisms and diverse modes of action expand the variety of fungistatic agents and reduce the emergence of drug resistance.In recent decades,considerable effort has been devoted to finding unique antifungal agents from nature and revealing their unusual mechanisms,which results in important progress on the development of new antifungals,such as the novel cell wall inhibitors YW3548 and SCY-078 which are being tested in clinical trials.This review will present a brief summary on the landscape of anti-Candida natural products within the last decade.We will also discuss in-depth the research progress on diverse natural fungistatic agents along with their novel mechanisms.
