Characterization of theCandida parapsilosiscomplex in East China: species distribution differs among cities [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 2012
Candida parapsilosis, which was previously considered to be a complex of three genetically distinct groups, has emerged as a significant agent of nosocomial infections. Recently, this complex was separated into three species: C. parapsilosis sensu stricto, C. orthopsilosis and C. metapsilosis. In China, data pertaining to these fungi are limited.

Host–pathogen interactions upon Candida auris infection: fungal behaviour and immune response in Galleria mellonella

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2022
Candida auris has globally emerged as a multidrug-resistant fungus linked to healthcare-associated outbreaks. There is still limited evidence on its virulence, pathogenicity determinants, and complex host–pathogen interactions. This study analyzes the in

Antifungal susceptibility and virulence of Candida parapsilosis species complex: an overview of their pathogenic potential

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2018
Antifungal resistance and several putative virulence factors have been associated with the pathogenicity of the Candida parapsilosis species complex. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antifungal susceptibility, the production of virulence factors and the pathogenicity of the C. parapsilosis complex.Overall, 49 isolates of C.
