Pathogenesis of Dermatophytosis
Mycopathologia, 2008 Despite the superficial localization of most dermatophytosis, host-fungus relationship in these infections is complex and still poorly elucidated. Though many efforts have been accomplished to characterize secreted dermatophytic proteases at the molecular level, only punctual insights have been afforded into other aspects of the pathogenesis of ...

Mycopathologia, 2008 The immune response to infection by dermatophytes ranges from a non-specific host mechanism to a humoral and cell-mediated immune response. The currently accepted view is that a cell-mediated immune response is responsible for the control of dermatophytosis.

Recalcitrant dermatophytosis [PDF]
Ugeskrift for LægerIn recent years, we have witnessed a rise in antifungal resistance, notably due to the emergence of Trichophyton indotineae, which is highly resistant to terbinafine. In Denmark, Trichophyton rubrum remains the most frequent causative agent. Antifungal susceptibility testing when resistance is suspected is critical for guiding treatment decisions.

Immunoregulation of Dermatophytosis
CRC Critical Reviews in Microbiology, 1989Dermatophytoses are superficial infections caused by a group of fungi, the dermatophytes, which invade keratinized tissue of skin, hair, and nails in humans and animals. The importance of normal immune function in resistance to dermatophytoses is substantiated by an increased susceptibility to chronic infection seen in patients with impaired ...

Abstract The most common forms of dermatophytosis that occur in HIV-infected persons are tinea pedis, onychomycosis, tinea cruris, and tinea corporis. Less commonly, patients may develop a fungal folliculitis (Majocchi’s granuloma). Among HIV-infected individuals, these disorders often have a similar clinical presentation when compared ...

Dermatophyte infections of the penis and scrotum are relatively rare compared with those involving the groin. Four cases of penile tinea due to Trichophyton rubrum are described. All patients had associated foci of fungal infection, but only one had crural involvement.

A survey of ringworm in camels showed over 25% of young animals suffered from T. verrucosum infection, and fewer than 0.5% of the camels had T. mentagrophytes. Amino acid analyses of hair samples taken from human, camel and cow showed the compositions were similar to within 11%.

OBJECTIVES:The prevalence and characteristics of patients with and without dermatophytosis of the ear were investigated.STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING:Prospective clinical study. In 54 patients who complained of slight itching or accumulation of cerumen, and/or who had erythema and scales in the ears, the presence of dermatophytosis was examined by potassium

Tinea pedis is the most common fungal infection worldwide. There are three well-accepted clinical presentations based on the offending organism. Predisposing factors include heat, humidity, and occlusion. Mild disease can evolve to "dermatophytosis complex" through bacterial superinfection.
