Peptidorhamnomannans From Scedosporium and Lomentospora Species Display Microbicidal Activity Against Bacteria Commonly Present in Cystic Fibrosis Patients

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Scedosporium and Lomentospora species are filamentous fungi that cause a wide range of infections in humans. They are usually found in the lungs of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and are the second most frequent fungal genus after Aspergillus species ...

Pathogen‐specific T Cells: Targeting Old Enemies and New Invaders in Transplantation and Beyond

HemaSphere, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Adoptive immunotherapy with virus‐specific cytotoxic T cells (VSTs) has evolved over the last three decades as a strategy to rapidly restore virus‐specific immunity to prevent or treat viral diseases after solid organ or allogeneic hematopoietic cell‐transplantation (allo‐HCT).

Voriconazole‐Associated Periostitis: New Insights into Pathophysiology and Management

JBMR Plus, Volume 6, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022
ABSTRACT Voriconazole‐associated periostitis (VAP) is an underrecognized and unpredictable side effect of long‐term voriconazole therapy. We report two cases of VAP occurring in the post‐transplant setting: a 68‐year‐old lung transplant recipient who required ongoing voriconazole therapy, in whom urinary alkalinization was used to promote fluoride ...

Crossover between the control of fungal pathogens in medicine and the wider environment, and the threat of antifungal resistance

Plant Pathology, Volume 71, Issue 1, Page 131-149, January 2022., 2022
The origin and emergence of resistance to antifungal compounds are evaluated and potential “hot spots” identified for major life‐theatening fungal human pathogens in medical and environmental settings. Abstract Fungal propagules existing in the natural environment can easily be transmitted to the human body, mostly by inhalation of contaminated air or ...

Acupuncture‐Associated Mycobacterium massiliense and Scedosporium Infections Superimposed by Tetanus

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Background. Tetanus has rarely been reported in Thailand since 1982 due to 100% tetanus vaccination coverage during the neonatal period of life. However, the reemergence of tetanus has been observed in our country during the past decade, mainly due to the increasing number of migrants traveling from neighboring countries in search of work.

Bis(N‐picolinamido)cobalt(II) Complexes Display Antifungal Activity toward Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus

ChemMedChem, Volume 16, Issue 20, Page 3210-3221, October 15, 2021., 2021
Bis(N‐picolinamide)cobalt(II) complexes containing trans isothiocyanate ligands are reported to have significantly enhanced activity toward fungal species, when compared the cis complexes. They display >80 % growth inhibition of fungal strains and no reported toxicity toward bacterial species or mammalian cells.
