We investigated the survival of the yeast Rhodotorula frigidalcoholis and analysed its RNA after exposure to icy moon conditions. Our results show how the yeast can tolerate the extreme conditions and performs metabolic functions under the exposure conditions; for example, by halting the cell cycle in order to repair. Created in BioRender.

ABSTRACT Background Dermatophyte infections, which are among the most prevalent fungal infections globally, affect skin, hair and nails, accounting for significant morbidity. Epidemiological data on dermatophytosis in the UK are limited. One notable study in 2007 provided insights into the causative agents of dermatophyte infections in the UK; however,

Infrared Spectroscopy as a Promising Tool for Diagnosing and Typing Human Pathogenic Fungi
ABSTRACT Fungal infections are increasingly recognised as a global health challenge, responsible for millions of cases annually and substantial mortality, especially in immunocompromised individuals. Yet, the diagnosis of these infections remains notoriously difficult, often delayed by slow culture‐based methods or hindered by the high cost and ...

This review explores the role of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms in cystic fibrosis (CF) pathogenesis. Biofilms, the main bacterial lifestyle in CF lungs, are key in therapy failure, immune evasion, and chronic infection persistence. This review examines biofilm structure, emphasizing extracellular polymeric substances (Psl, Pel, alginate, eDNA) and ...
