Paracoccidioides Species Circulating in the Endemic Area of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil: Updates into Their Genetic Diversity [PDF]
Paracoccidiodomycosis (PCM) is the most important systemic mycosis in Brazil, and is usually associated with rural work. PCM is caused by inhalation of infective propagules of thermodimorphic fungi from the genus Paracoccidioides.

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis-gp43 used as paracoccidioidin. [PDF]
A purified glycoprotein of 43,000 daltons from Paracoccidioides brasiliensis (gp43) was tested as paracoccidioidin in delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) tests in both experimental animals (guinea pig and mice) and patients with paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). The gp43 paracoccidioidin was compared with the traditional Fava Netto antigen (AgFN).

Monitoring gp43 Antigenemia in Paracoccidioidomycosis Patients during Therapy [PDF]
ABSTRACT Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic fungal disease that is particularly important among individuals living and working in rural areas of endemicity in Latin America. Detection of anti- Paracoccidioides brasiliensis antibodies is of limited value due to false-negative results. Detection of

Molecular hydrogen treatment can significantly improve the gut microbiota and metabolites and reduce the inflammatory reaction and cognitive dysfunction after SAE. This study provides a basis for the pathogenesis and treatment of SAE. Abstract Introduction In our experiments, male wild‐type mice were randomly divided into four groups: the sham, SAE ...

Detection of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis gp43 Gene in Sputa by Loop‐Mediated Isothermal Amplification Method [PDF]
AbstractThe fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is the pathogen of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), a systemic mycosis prevalent in Latin America. The loop‐mediated isothermal amplification method (LAMP) was used in this study to detect the presence of P. brasiliensis in sputa samples from patients with chronic PCM, suspected PCM, and a negative control.

Differences in reactivity of paracoccidioidomycosis sera with gp43 isoforms [PDF]
The glycoprotein gp43 from Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is the main antigenic component in paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) because it is recognized by 100% of PCM patients. It has also been shown that different fungal strains produce gp43 with at least four isoform profiles.

cDNA cloning and sequence analysis of the Xenopus laevis egg envelope glycoprotein gp43 [PDF]
The glycoproteins of the Xenopus laevis egg envelope function in fertilization and development. As the unfertilizable coelomic egg transits the pars recta region of the oviduct, it is converted to a fertilizable egg by limited proteolysis of the envelope glycoprotein gp43 to gp41.

We investigated the in vitro effects of two Paracoccidioides brasiliensis antigens on monocyte-derived dendritic cells (moDCs) from patients with paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM).

Multiepitope peptide vaccine has some advantages over traditional recombinant protein vaccine due to its easy and fast production and possible inclusion of multiple protective epitopes of pathogens. However, it is usually poorly immunogenic and needs to conjugate to a large carrier protein.

Gene expression of Paracoccidioides virulence factors after interaction with macrophages and fibroblasts [PDF]
BACKGROUND Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic mycosis with high prevalence in Latin America that is caused by thermodimorphic fungal species of the Paracoccidioides genus.
