Rhinofacial zygomycosis caused by conidiobolus coronatus. [PDF]

Indian J Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg, 2004
Fungal infections are common in a tropical country like India. Among the Zygomycosis infections, those caused by Mucorales are more prevalent. However, there exists another order of zygomycetes, the Entomophthorales, which rarely cause clinical disease.

Successful Management of Rhinofacial Conidiobolus coronatus Infection with Itraconazole Monotherapy. [PDF]

Am J Trop Med Hyg
ABSTRACT. There are no standard guidelines on the management of Conidiobolus infections, and many antifungals have been used, either alone or in combination. Relapses are common even after successful management. Although localized, they can result in severe facial disfigurement and may rarely cause disseminated entomophthoromycosis, which can have ...

Harman and norharman, metabolites of the entomopathogenic fungus Conidiobolus coronatus (Entomophthorales), affect the serotonin levels and phagocytic activity of hemocytes, insect immunocompetent cells, in Galleria mellonella (Lepidoptera) [PDF]

Cell & Bioscience, 2019
Background Although the β-carboline alkaloids harman and norharman are considered as plant metabolites, they can also be secreted by fungi such as the entomopathogen Conidiobolus coronatus. Norharman and harman are also known to be reversible competitive

Phylogenetic Revision and Patterns of Host Specificity in the Fungal Subphylum Entomophthoromycotina [PDF]

Microorganisms, 2022
The Entomophthoromycotina, a subphylum close to the root of terrestrial fungi with a bias toward insects as their primary hosts, has been notoriously difficult to categorize taxonomically for decades.

Disseminated Gastrointestinal Basidiobolomycosis: A Case Report with Review of Diagnostic Clues. [PDF]

Case Rep Med
Introduction. Basidiobolomycosis is a rare fungal infection caused by an environmental saprophyte, Basidiobolus ranarum. It usually presents as a chronic subcutaneous infection; however, few cases of gastrointestinal involvement have been reported. The exact transmission route of gastrointestinal cases is not clear, and diagnosis always requires a high
