In-hospital mortality of HIV-infected cryptococcal meningitis patients withC. gattiiandC. neoformansinfection in Gaborone, Botswana [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 2010
The clinical presentations and outcomes of cryptococcal meningitis (CM) may be associated with the cryptococcal species causing the infections. To evaluate clinical differences between CM caused by C. neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii, we examined outcomes in HIV-infected adults with CM admitted to Princess Marina Hospital in Gaborone, Botswana. Among

Phytochemical and Biological Evaluation of Leaves, Stems, and Roots of Schinus weinmanniifolia Mart. Ex Engl.

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.
Ethanolic extracts from leaves, stems, and roots of Schinus weinmanniifolia Mart. ex Engl. were evaluated for phytochemical composition and biological activities. The extracts exhibited antioxidant, photoprotective, and antimicrobial activity, without hemolytic effects or cytotoxicity at active concentrations. Syringic acid, epicatechin, and rutin were

An Association of Cryptococcus Neoformans/C. gattii Genotype and HIV Status in Asia: A Systematic Review

Siriraj Medical Journal, 2019
Objective: It has been known that VNI molecular type of Cryptococcus neoformans/C. gattii is strongly associated with HIV patients. However, this paradigm has recently been challenged because of the high prevalence of VNI molecular type among non-HIV patients with cryptococcosis in East Asia. The purpose of this study was to answer the question: “Among

Correlation of antifungal susceptibility and molecular type within theCryptococcus neoformans/C. gattiispecies complex [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 2012
Members of the Cryptococcus neoformans/C. gattii species complex are grouped into eight molecular types, differing in their epidemiology, disease severity and geographic range. Recent in vitro antifungal susceptibility studies of isolates of the complex revealed contradictory results.

GNPS Untargeted GC‐MS Metabolomic Analysis of Essential Oils From Duguetia lanceolata and Evaluation of Antimicrobial Activity

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 2, February 2026.
Untargeted metabolomic analysis of the essential oil of D. lanceolata leaves collected in winter revealed that they are mostly composed of sesquiterpenes, while those collected in autumn showed a predominance of monoterpenes. Both essential oils displayed antimicrobial activity against bacterial and fungal species.

Capsule independent uptake of the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans into brain microvascular endothelial cells. [PDF]

, 2012
Cryptococcosis is a life-threatening fungal disease with a high rate of mortality among HIV/AIDS patients across the world. The ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is central to the pathogenesis of cryptococcosis, but the way in which this

Identification of the Major Molecular Types of Cryptococcus neoformans and C. gattii by Hyperbranched Rolling Circle Amplification

PLoS ONE, 2014
The agents of cryptococcosis C. neoformans and C. gattii are important agents of meningoencephalitis in immunocompromised and immunocompetent hosts, respectively. They are grouped into eight major molecular types, VNI-VNIV for C. neoformans and VGI-VGIV for C. gattii.

First isolation ofCryptococcus neoformansvar.gattii, serotype C, from the environment in Colombia [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 1998
The natural habitat of Cryptococcus neoformans var. gattii, serotype B in the environment was established by Australian investigators who demonstrated its association with species of Eucalyptus. The aim of the present study was to search for the habitat of this variety in a city of Colombia, where clinical cases due to this variety occur with great ...

Acute Toxicity and Genotoxicity of cMoL, a Lectin From Moringa oleifera Seeds With Antifungal Activity Against Cryptococcus Strains

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 2, Page 682-696, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Coagulant Moringa oleifera lectin (cMoL) is one of the compounds involved in the application of M. oleifera seeds for traditional water treatment methods. The present study highlights the new biotechnological potential of cMoL lectin as an antifungal agent against Cryptococcus neoformans B3501 and H99 and Cryptococcus gattii R265 strains ...
