Central nervous system paracoccidioidomycosis: analysis of 13 cases with immunofluorescence research of gp43 antigen [PDF]

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2001
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic granulomatous disease caused by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, prevalent in Latin America, particularly in Brazil. Central nervous system (CNS) involvement occur in about 10% of cases, although such cases are uncommon in the literature […] Central nervous system paracoccidioidomycosis: analysis of 13 cases ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

N‐glycan signatures identified in tumor interstitial fluid and serum of breast cancer patients: association with tumor biology and clinical outcome

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, Volume 12, Issue 6, Page 972-990, June 2018., 2018
Using quantitative glycome profiling of breast tumor interstitial fluid and matched serum, we identified N‐glycan pattern that (a) segregates tumor and normal interstitual fluids, (b) correlates with the presence of immune cells within tumor, (c) can be predictive for overall survival outcome of patients with breast cancer, and (d) can be detected in ...

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

open access: yesPLoS 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).

Polymorphism in the Gene Coding for the Immunodominant Antigen gp43 from the Pathogenic FungusParacoccidioides brasiliensis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2000
ABSTRACT The gp43 glycoprotein is an immune-dominant antigen in patients with paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). It is protective against murine PCM and is a putative virulence factor. The gp43 gene of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis B-339 is located in a 1,329-bp DNA fragment that includes two exons, a 78-bp ...

Detection of the basement membrane-degrading proteolytic activity of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis after SDS-PAGE using agarose overlays containing Abz-MKALTLQ-EDDnp [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We have characterized, in the Paracoccidioides brasiliensis yeast phase, an exocellular SH-dependent serine proteinase activity against Abz-MKRLTL-EDDnp and analogous fluorescent-quenched peptides, and showed that it is also active against constituents ...

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Paracoccidioidomycosis in the Maxillofacial Region: A Report of 5 Cases

open access: yesCase Reports in Otolaryngology, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Paracoccidioidomycosis is a fungal infection initially described in Brazil in 1908 by Adolfo Lutz. Manifestation of this disease depends on numerous factors, such as microorganism virulence, hormonal profile, genetic predisposition, nutrition, and immune system.

New developments of RNAi in Paracoccidioides brasiliensis: prospects for high-throughput, genome-wide, functional genomics. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
The Fungal Genome Initiative of the Broad Institute, in partnership with the Paracoccidioides research community, has recently sequenced the genome of representative isolates of this human-pathogen dimorphic fungus: Pb18 (S1), Pb03 (PS2) and Pb01.
