Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome following Cryptococcal neoformans infection in an immunocompetent host: A case report and review of the literature

open access: yesIDCases, 2020
We present a case of Cryptococcus neoformans in an immunocompetent middle-aged woman with a disseminated manifestation of pulmonary cryptoccoma and cryptococcal meningitis resulting in bilateral blindness.

Yeasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Yeasts are a group of eukaryotic microfungi with a well-defined cell wall whose growth is either entirely unicellular or a combination of hyphal and unicellular reproduction. The approximately 1500 known yeast species belong to two distinct fungal phyla,

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 6, Page 894-909, March 2026.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

In vitro susceptibility to antifungal agents of environmental Cryptococcus spp. isolated in the city of Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo, Brazil

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2006
Infections by Cryptococcus strains other than C. neoformans have been detected in immunocompromised patients. Of these strains, three are considered human pathogens: C. albidus, C. laurenttii, and C. uniguttulatus.

CsdA‐LaeB Regulatory Hub Contributes to Aspergillus fumigatus Virulence via Fumiquinazoline C Biosynthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
This study identifies a conserved CsdA‐LaeB hub in Aspergillus fumigatus that regulates secondary metabolite fumiquinazoline C (FqC). Disrupting this hub enhances FqC production and virulence, shedding new light on the post‐transcriptional regulatory logic linking secondary metabolism to pathogenicity and offering alternative strategies for diagnostic ...
