Non‐dermatophyte fungi in onychomycosis—Epidemiology and consequences for clinical practice

Mycoses (Berlin), 2021
Onychomycoses are difficult‐to‐treat fungal infections with a high recurrence rate that relates to the anatomic and pathophysiological conditions in the nail organ and the required extended duration of treatment.

Major challenges and perspectives in the diagnostics and treatment of dermatophyte infections

Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2020
Dermatophytes are the aetiological factors of a majority of superficial fungal infections. What distinguishes them from other pathogenic filamentous fungi is their unique ability to degrade keratin.

Invasive dermatophyte infection: A systematic review

Mycoses (Berlin), 2020
Dermatophyte infections usually present as various types of superficial cutaneous mycoses; on very rare occasions, dermatophytes enter deep into the dermis and cause invasive infections.

Immunization and dermatophytes

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2008
Despite the availability of effective vaccines for certain animal species, vaccination against dermatophytosis requires improvement and further development in both animals and humans. This review provides an update on the current situation and focuses on recent advances in host-dermatophyte relationships that could have implications for future ...

Heterokaryosis in dermatophytes

Mycopathologia, 1967
Biochemical mutants ofTrichophyton mentagrophytes unable to grow on minimum medium (auxotrophs) have been paired. Growth on minimum medium occurred irregularly for many combinations, but turned out to be caused by syntrophism in most cases. Only for one combination showing the best growth could the formation of a heterokaryon be shown.

Comparison of in vitro antifungal activity of novel triazoles with available antifungal agents against dermatophyte species caused tinea pedis.

Journal de Mycologie Médicale, 2020
OBJECTIVE Dermatophytes are a group of keratinophilic fungi that invade and infect the keratinized tissues and cause dermatophytosis. We investigated effectiveness of novel triazole (luliconazole and lanaconazole) in comparison with available antifungal ...

Dermatophytes and Dermatophytic Infections Worldwide

2021
Dermatophytoses are a common public health problem with high prevalence. The etiological agents of dermatophytoses, termed dermatophytes, change with geography and socioeconomic status. Trichophyton rubrum is the predominant species for skin and nail infections followed by Trichophyton mentagrophytes/Trichophyton interdigitale complex.

Detection and identification of dermatophyte fungi in clinical samples using a commercial multiplex tandem PCR assay.

Pathology (Sydney), 2020
We evaluated the performance of a commercial multiplex tandem polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for detection of dermatophytes and other fungi in skin and nail specimens by (1) testing a range of fungal and bacterial reference cultures, (2) retrospectively
