Immunoresponses in dermatomycoses

Journal of Dermatology, 2015
AbstractContact with fungal pathogens initiates a series of host responses beginning with innate immunity, which leads to fungal recognition and microbial killing. The innate immune system also modulates the adaptive immune responses, leading to the establishment of immunological memory and protection against pathogens.

Dermatomycosis Caused by Non-Dermatophyte Agents; Diagnosis Based on Molecular Identification. [PDF]

Microbiologyopen
This study greatly enhances the growing evidence highlighting the role of non‐dermatophyte fungi in causing dermatomycoses. The variation in patient demographics, clinical signs, and fungal causes demonstrates the complexity of these infections. More research is needed to understand how predisposing factors, environmental exposures and the disease ...
