Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis after Exposure to Candida spp
Archivos de Bronconeumología ((English Edition)), 2010Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is a lung disease caused by heavy and recurrent inhalation of antigens. We describe the case of a patient with HP caused by domestic exposure to Candida spp. The diagnosis was made by taking into consideration the, clinical presentation, exposure history, radiological findings, bronchoalveolar lavage, lung function and

Candida spp. and phagocytosis: multiple evasion mechanisms
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2019Invasive fungal infections are a global health problem, mainly in hospitals, where year by year hundreds of patients die because of these infections. Commensal yeasts may become pathogenic to human beings, affecting mainly immunocompromised patients. During infectious processes, the immune system uses phagocytes to eliminate invader microorganisms.

Examination on Candida spp. in refractory periapical granulomas
International Endodontic Journal, 2003AbstractAim To examine the occurrence of Candida spp. in refractory periapical granulomas.Methodology One hundred and three surgically removed periapical granulomas were subjected to molecular analysis for the occurrence of Candida albicans. DNA was extracted from the samples using a modified phenol/chloroform/isoamyl alcohol method and was subjected

Codon CUG is used for serine instead of for leucine, its usual assignment, in several yeasts of the genus Candida. We propose a series of steps for the reassignment, including disappearance of leucine CUG and its anticodon CAG, formation of a new serine tRNA, with anticodon CAG, from a duplication of the gene for serine tRNA (IGA), and then production ...

Virulence Traits of Candida spp.: An Overview
2021Fungal infections caused by Candida species (spp.) are the most common among opportunistic human fungal infections. Widespread and prolonged usage of antimicrobial drugs in treating infections has led to the emergence of resistance among the various strains of Candida.

Emerging Candida spp. Infections
2003More than 150 species of Candida have been idenfified, but only a dosen or so have been regarded as important pathogens in humans. Although C. albicans remains the most common fungal pathogen, over the past decade or so, there has been an increasing number of reports implicating non-albicans species causing opportunistic mycoses (1).

Phospholipase Activity in Candida Albicans, Candida Spp and Other Yeasts
1991The ability of Candida albicansto produce cytolytic enzymes such as proteinases 1,2 and phospholipases 3,4 may be associated with the pathogenicity of this fungus 5. The phospholipases secreted by C. albicanscould play a part in the invasion of the host tissues in lesions of candidosis 6 by disrupting the epithelial cell membranes and allowing the ...

[Optimization of the conditions for RAPD-PCR of Candida spp. and Cryptococcus spp].
Revista iberoamericana de micologia, 2005In this study, we determined the optimal RAPD amplification conditions to obtain genetic molecular markers for the rapid and accurate identification of Cryptococcus spp. and Candida spp. The following parameters are modified: template DNA, DNA polymerase, magnesium cloride and primer concentration; denaturation, annealing and extension time ...
