Case Report: Streptococcus Suis Meningitis Diagnosed in a HIV-Infected Patient With Cryptococcal Meningitis Using Next-Generation Sequencing

Frontiers in Medicine, 2021
Background: Streptococcus suis has been recognized as a zoonotic pathogen that may cause infections in humans. Although rarely described, it is not surprising that both cryptococcal and streptococcus suis meningitis infections can co-exist in a HIV ...

Thermotolerance in the pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans is linked to antigen masking via mRNA decay-dependent reprogramming

Nature Communications, 2019
A common feature shared by systemic fungal pathogens of environmental origin, such as Cryptococcus neoformans, is their ability to adapt to mammalian core body temperature. In C.

A Novel In Vitro Host−Pathogen Model for Felis catus and Sporothrix Zoonotic Species Investigation

Journal of Basic Microbiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hyperendemic zoonotic sporotrichosis, attributed to Sporothrix brasiliensis, presents a significant public health challenge in Brazil. Cats exhibit severe symptoms and high fungal loads, though their susceptibility is unclear. Sporothrix schenckii can also cause feline disease, primarily seen in Asia.

Identification of Pathogen Genomic Differences That Impact Human Immune Response and Disease during Cryptococcus neoformans Infection

mBio, 2019
Even with the best available care, mortality rates in cryptococcal meningitis range from 20% to 60%. Disease is often due to infection by the fungus Cryptococcus neoformans and involves a complex interaction between the human host and the fungal pathogen.

The Rare Presentation of Deep Dermatophytosis‐Trichophyton in an Immunosuppressed Patient

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dermatophytes typically cause superficial skin infections characterized by an active border. However, they can present atypically invading deeper in immunocompromised patients. We present a case of a 72‐year‐old woman with bullous pemphigoid who had received oral prednisolone for 3 months and developed umbilicated papules.

Incidental Cryptococcal lung mass in an immunocompetent patient

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2019
Cryptococcus is an encapsulated fungal organism often implicated in central nervous system and pulmonary disease in patients with AIDS or other immunocompromising diseases. However, immunocompetent hosts can also be infected. In these cases, symptoms are

The Cryptococcus neoformans Titan cell is an inducible and regulated morphotype underlying pathogenesis

bioRxiv, 2017
Fungi undergo changes in cell shape in response to environmental stimuli that drive pathogenesis and niche adaptation, such as the yeast-to-hyphal transition of dimorphic fungi in response to changing temperature.
