The Lipase Activities of Malassezia Species Isolated from Seborrhoeic Dermatitis/Dandruff Patients [PDF]
Introduction: Malassezia a commensal yeast, can become pathogenic leading to different clinical forms of dermatosis. Being an obligatory lipophilic, the lipolytic enzymes produced by them help in their growth by obtaining useful lipids from the ...

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 ...

Multi‐omics analyses reveal host–microbe interactions in atopic dermatitis and psoriasis
Atopic dermatitis (AD) and psoriasis (PSO) are chronic inflammatory skin diseases with complex host–microbe interactions. This study analysed skin samples from patients and healthy individuals using integrated microbial and transcriptomic profiling. Both diseases showed disrupted fungal–bacterial interactions and alterations in host immune responses ...

Dermatophytes can be isolated from both symptomatic and asymptomatic cats, yet the role of skin commensals in modulating disease expression remains unclear. This study investigates whether microbial skin communities influence the clinical presentation (symptomatic or asymptomatic) of dermatophyte infection in Persian cats.
