Incidência de C. albicans e C. parapsilosis em hospitais e o mecanismo de resistência aos fármacos / Incidence of C. albicans and C. parapsilosis in hospitals and the drug resistance mechanism

Brazilian Journal of Development, 2022
Introdução: A incidência de infecções por Candida (C.) está aumentando mundialmente, colocando as espécies de Candida (spp.) como os patógenos oportunistas mais importantes entre as leveduras. O espectro da infecção causada por espécies de Candida é ampla, variando de infecções de mucosas geniturinárias a não genitais.

Candida parapsilosis Virulence and Antifungal Resistance Mechanisms: A Comprehensive Review of Key Determinants

Journal of Fungi, 2023
Candida parapsilosis is the second most common Candida species isolated in Asia, Southern Europe, and Latin America and is often involved in invasive infections that seriously impact human health. This pathogen is part of the psilosis complex, which also

Comparison of Secretory Acid Proteinases fromCandida tropicalis, C. parapsilosisandC. albicans [PDF]

Microbiology and Immunology, 1992
AbstractAcid proteinases secreted byCandida tropicalisandC. parapsilosiswere newly isolated. Their physico‐chemical and enzymatic properties of molecular weight, pH stability, isoelectric points, specific activity, and N‐terminal amino acid sequences were determined and compared with those of aC. albicansacid proteinase.

Degradation of human kininogens with the release of kinin peptides by extracellular proteinases of Candida spp. [PDF]

, 2010
The secretion of proteolytic enzymes by pathogenic microorganisms is one of the most successful strategies used by pathogens to colonize and infect the host organism.

Bloodstream yeast infections: a 15-month survey [PDF]

, 2009
A 15-month survey of 412 bloodstream yeast isolates from 54 Belgian hospitals was undertaken. Candida albicans was the most common species (47.3%) followed by C. glabrata (25.7%), C. parapsilosis (8.0%), C. tropicalis (6.8%) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (

Different risk factors for candidemia occur for Candida species belonging to the C. parapsilosis complex [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 2014
Previous studies have demonstrated reduced virulence in the species that comprise the Candida parapsilosis complex. We investigated a cohort of 93 patients with candidemia caused by this complex. Most infections were caused by C. parapsilosis (80.6%), followed by C. orthopsilosis (18.3%) and C. metapsilosis (1.1%). Renal failure (P < 0.001) and chronic

Comparative phenotypic analysis of the major fungal pathogens Candida parapsilosis and Candida albicans.

PLoS Pathogens, 2014
Candida parapsilosis and Candida albicans are human fungal pathogens that belong to the CTG clade in the Saccharomycotina. In contrast to C. albicans, relatively little is known about the virulence properties of C.
