Dermatologic Clinics, 1996
Dermatophytes, members of the anamorphic genera Epidermophyton, Microsporum, and Trichophyton, are capable of invading keratinous tissue, causing cutaneous infection referred to as dermatophytosis. These species may be anthropophilic, zoophilic, or geophilic based on host preference and natural habitat. These groupings are epidemiologically significant.

Keratin hydrolysis by dermatophytes.
Medical Mycology, 2019Dermatophytes are the most common cause of superficial fungal infections (tinea infections) and are a specialized group of filamentous fungi capable of infecting and degrading keratinised tissues, including skin, hair, and nail.

5100 isolates belonging to 14 spp. of dermatophytes were obtained from 10 011 samples of hair, skin, nail and beard in Portugal over the years 1962–71.The relationship between the species and the site of the disease; the sex, age, occupation of the patients and the origin of the samples was investigated. The biology of the fungi and the epidemiology of

Immunization and dermatophytes
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2008Despite 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 ...

Chlamydospores of Dermatophytes
Mycoses, 1986Summary: Chlamydospores of dermatophytes were differentiated from gemmae, vesicules, protoplasm reservoirs and aleuriospores. Chlamydospores were not found to be resting structures, but possess multiple budding. So‐called terminal and lateral chlamydospores become generally intercalary as they get older.

Phosphatidate phosphatase of dermatophytes [PDF]
Lipids, 1982 AbstractPhosphatidate phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.4) was detected in filamentous pathogenic fungi. In both dermatophytes,Microsporum gypseum andEpidermophyton floccosum, the enzyme was located in the mitochondrial and microsomal subcellular fractions with a pH optimum of 6.0. TheE. floccosum enzyme was more active than that ofM. gypseum.

ABSTRACT: Prior to 1982, no reliable information was available on prevailing dermatophyte species or infections in Iceland. In 1983–1984 fungal cultures performed on 96 patients revealed that Trichophyton tonsurans was the most common isolate, followed by Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Trichophyton rubrum.

Dermatophytes as opportunistic pathogens
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1994Fig. 2. Photomicrograph of biopsy specimen from cutaneous nodule. Epidermis and underlying superficial dermis showed minimal inflammation. Mid and reticular dermis are replaced by cavity filled with fungal elements. Shown is edge of abscess cavity. Note numerous septate hyaline hyphae typical of dermatophytes.
