The epidemic of the multiresistant dermatophyte Trichophyton indotineae has reached China

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Due to its high degree of natural resistance to terbinafine in vitro and its tendency to spread globally from the Indian subcontinent, the emerging dermatophyte Trichophyton indotineae has become a major concern in dermatology.

Dermatophyte infection: from fungal pathogenicity to host immune responses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Dermatophytosis is a common superficial infection caused by dermatophytes, a group of pathogenic keratinophilic fungi. Apart from invasion against skin barrier, host immune responses to dermatophytes could also lead to pathologic inflammation and tissue ...
