Kinetics of IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, IL-10 and IL-4 production by mononuclear cells stimulated with gp43 peptides, in patients cured of paracoccidioidomycosis Cinética da produção de IFN-gama, TNF-alfa, IL-10 e IL-4 por células mononucleares, de pacientes curados de paracoccidoidomicose, estimuladas com peptídeos da gp43

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2007
We analyzed the kinetics of cytokine production by mononuclear cells from 17 patients who had been treated for paracoccidioidomycosis, using the stimulus of gp43 peptide groups (43kDa glycoprotein of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis) at 0.1 and 1µM, gp43 ...

scFv from Antibody That Mimics gp43 Modulates the Cellular and Humoral Immune Responses during Experimental Paracoccidioidomycosis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), caused by Paracoccidioides species is a prevalent systemic and progressive mycosis that occurs in Latin America. It is caused by Paracoccidioides species. Immunization with dendritic cells transfected with a plasmid encoding

Humoral immune response in experimental ddY mice Paracoccidioidomycosis/
Resposta imune humoral na paracoccidioidomicose experimental em camundongos ddY

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2007
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic mycosis, restrict to Latin America, with higher incidence in Brazil. ddY mice have been used as experimental PCM model, although there is no data regarding immune response.

Cryptic species of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis: impact on paracoccidioidomycosis immunodiagnosis

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
We aimed to evaluate whether the occurrence of cryptic species of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, S1, PS2, PS3 and Paracoccidioides lutzii, has implications in the immunodiagnosis of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM).

43 kDa Glycoprotein (gp43) from Paracoccidioides brasiliensis Induced IL-17A and PGE2 Production by Human Polymorphonuclear Neutrophils: Involvement of TLR2 and TLR4

Journal of Immunology Research, 2019
The glycoprotein gp43 is the major antigenic/diagnostic component of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, one of the etiologic agents of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). Gp43 has protective roles in mice, but due to adhesive properties, this glycoprotein has also

The Environment and Cyanophage Diversity: Insights From Environmental Sequencing of DNA Polymerase

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Globally distributed and abundant cyanophages in the family Myoviridae have dsDNA genomes with variable gene content, including host-derived auxiliary metabolic genes (AMGs) that potentially can facilitate viral replication.

Comparison of clinico-epidemiological and radiological features in paracoccidioidomycosis patients regarding serological classification using antigens from Paracoccidioides brasiliensis complex and Paracoccidioides lutzii.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020
Genotyping of the genus Paracoccidioides showed its diversity and geographical distribution. Four species constituting the Paracoccidioides brasiliensis complex and Paracoccidioides lutzii are etiological agents of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM).

Cell-free antigens from precocious Paracoccidioides brasiliensis culture induce a typical delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2011
Cell-free antigens (CFAg) derived from Paracoccidioides brasiliensis have typically been used in immunodiffusion reactions for serodiagnosis or therapeutic follow-up of paracoccidioidomycosis patients.
