Malassezia and Parkinson's Disease [PDF]
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common debilitating neurodegenerative disease caused by a loss of dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra within the central nervous system (CNS). The process leading to this neuronal loss is poorly understood. Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is a common benign inflammatory condition of the skin which mainly affects lipid-rich

Comparative efficacy of selenoureido carbonic anhydrase inhibitors and azole antifungal drugs against clinical isolates of Malassezia pachydermatis. [PDF]
Background – Malassezia pachydermatis (MP) is implicated in severe dermatitis and otitis externa (OE) of companion animals and recently gained attention for its increasing resistance to azole compounds. For this reason, developing novel therapeutic strategies is of great interest. In a previous work, we used reference yeast isolates to evaluate several

Malassezia pachydermatis: a review [PDF]
Malassezia pachydermatis is of importance in both veterinary and human medicine. Its taxonomic status and physiological characteristics are now better understood. Skin disease associated with this lipophilic yeast is now commonly recognized, especially in dogs.

Atopic Dermatitis Host and Environment Model: Revisiting Therapeutic Options [PDF]
Atopic Dermatitis affects both children and adults and is a serious health concern in many countries. AD is a complex disease with host and environmental factors underlying its pathology. Its treatment is multidimensional reflecting the diverse nature of

Malassezia pachydermatis and Malassezia furfur are lipophilic yeasts of the cutaneous microbiome, although these organisms are occasionally responsible for serious invasive infections in neonates. Since phagocytosis is an important mechanism mediating the adaptive immune response, here we evaluated the phagocytosis capacity and production of nitric ...

Genotypic Analysis of the Population Structure in Malassezia globosa and Malassezia restricta
The molecular characterization of Malassezia spp. isolates from animals and humans has not been thoroughly studied. Although a range of molecular methods has been developed for diagnosing Malassezia species, they have several drawbacks, such as inefficiency in differentiating all the species, high cost and questionable reproducibility.

Comparison betweenMalasseziaFolliculitis and Non-MalasseziaFolliculitis [PDF]
Among the various types of folliculitis, differentiation of Malassezia folliculitis (MF) from other forms of folliculitis is important because it is usually treated with antifungal agents.We attempted to find a method to enhance the detection rate of MF, and examined the differences in the clinical manifestation between MF and non-MF (NMF).We performed

Genus Malassezia comprises of 14 species of "yeast like fungi," 13 of which are lipophilic and 1 is nonlipophilic. They are known commensals and in predisposed individuals they commonly cause a spectrum of chronic recurrent infections. They rarely also cause serious illnesses like catheter-related blood stream infections, CAPD associated peritonitis ...

Two new lipid-dependent Malassezia species from domestic animals [PDF]
During a study on the occurrence of lipid-dependent Malassezia spp. in domestic animals, some atypical strains, phylogenetically related to Malassezia sympodialis Simmons et Guého, were shown to represent novel species. In this study, we describe two new
