Candida parapsilosis prosthetic valve endocarditis

Medical Mycology Case Reports, 2015
Candida endocarditis is a rare infection associated with high mortality and morbidity. There are still some controversies about Candida endocarditis treatment, especially about the treatment duration. We report a case of a Candida parapsilosis endocarditis that presented as a lower limb ischemia.

In vitro characterization of virulence factors among species of the Candida parapsilosis complex

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2020
INTRODUCTION: Candida parapsilosis complex species differ from each other with regard to their prevalence and virulence. METHODS: The hydrolytic enzyme activity, biofilm production, and adhesion to epithelial cells were analyzed in 87 C.

Fluorescent Probes Derived from the Polyene Class of Antifungal Drugs Reveal Distinct Localization Patterns and Resistance‐Associated Vacuolar Sequestration in Candida Species

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 2, 9 January 2026.
Fluorescent probes derived from all three clinically used polyene antifungals (amphotericin B, nystatin, and natamycin) enabled direct visualization of distribution in yeast cells of various Candida species. While retaining the ergosterol‐dependent mode of action of their parent drugs, the probes revealed distinct, structure‐specific localization ...

Hydrolytic Enzyme Production and Susceptibility to Antifungal Compounds of Opportunistic Candida parapsilosis Strains Isolated from Cucurbitaceae and Rosaceae Fruits

Applied Microbiology, 2023
Endophytic yeast species were studied in the internal tissues of ripe cultivated vegetables and fruits. A total of 19 yeast species, 11 ascomycete species, and 8 basidiomycete species were observed in the internal tissues of all fruits examined.

Swine abortion caused by Candida parapsilosis.

The Journal of veterinary medical science, 2021
In July 2020, a sow in a breeding herd in the Chiba Prefecture, Japan, suffered abortion. A necropsy revealed pale pulmonary foci scattered in the two fetuses. Histologically, multifocal pulmonary necrosis was detected with numerous yeasts. The yeast was positively stained using the periodic acid-Schiff reaction and Grocott's silver stain.

Species Distribution of Candidemia and Their Susceptibility in a Single Japanese University Hospital: Prior Micafungin Use Affects the Appearance of Candida parapsilosis and Elevation of Micafungin MICs in Non-parapsilosis Candida Species

Journal of Fungi, 2021
Introduction: Micafungin is a recommended echinocandin antifungal agent for candidemia treatment and prophylaxis. However, overuse of echinocandin antifungals may cause resistance.
