Molecular epidemiology of a Malassezia pachydermatis neonatal unit outbreak [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 2017
The non-lipid-dependent yeast Malassezia pachydermatis is predominantly zoophilic but occasionally colonizes the human skin. This yeast caused an outbreak in a neonatal iIntensive care unit (NICU). This study aimed to describe the molecular epidemiology of this M. pachydermatis outbreak. All the M.

Ustilago maydis Phosphatidic Acid and Phosphatidylserine‐Targeting Secreted Lipase Lip3 Is Involved in Pathogenesis

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Ustilago maydis secreted lipase, Lip3 targets PA and PS and alkalinises the host apoplast, thus promoting virulence. Loss of Lip3 results in reduced apoplastic pH and decreased pathogenicity. ABSTRACT Lipases constitute important virulence factors. By targeting specific lipids involved in various cellular processes, lipases regulate growth, development,

Diversity and Antifungal Susceptibility of Malassezia spp. Isolated From Brazilian Patients With Pityriasis Versicolor and Seborrheic Dermatitis

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Malassezia spp. are part of the microbiota of many animals, including humans. However, under certain conditions, they can become pathogenic. Diseases associated with Malassezia include pityriasis versicolor (PV), seborrheic dermatitis (SD), Malassezia folliculitis, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and fungemia.

Prevalence and genetic diversity of azole-resistant Malassezia pachydermatis isolates from canine otitis and dermatitis: a two-year study.

Medical Mycology
Despite previous reports on the emergence of Malassezia pachydermatis strains with decreased susceptibility to azoles, there is limited information on the actual prevalence and genetic diversity of azole-resistant isolates of this yeast species.

Pityriasis Versicolor in a Southern Ground Hornbill (Bucorvus leadbeateri)

Case Reports in Veterinary Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
A 20‐year‐old southern ground hornbill (Bucorvus leadbeateri) developed hyperpigmented macules on its gular pouch, resembling the lesions typically seen in humans with pityriasis versicolor. Cytologic examination revealed over 100 budding yeasts per oil immersion field.

Redefining the Skin Barrier: A Microbiome‐Integrated Multilayered Defense Model

Barrier Immunity, Volume 1, Issue 1, Page 27-44, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The skin constitutes a dynamic interface orchestrating a sophisticated multilayered defense system comprising physical, chemical, immune, and microbial barriers. This review synthesizes current understanding of the structural and functional integration of these barriers, emphasizing their synergistic interactions in maintaining cutaneous ...

Malassezia pachydermatis: enzymes production in isolates from external ear canal of dogs with and without otitis Malassezia pachydermatis: produção de enzimas por amostras isoladas do conduto auditivo externo de cães com e sem otite

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2005
The relationship between production of enzymes and pathogenicity of Malassezia pachydermatis strains was studied. Thirty strains of M. pachydermatis isolated from dogs were used: 15 originating from animals with external otitis and 15 obtained from ears ...

The effects of caffeine and adenosine on the microbiome and lipidome of the scalp

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 47, Issue 5, Page 916-930, October 2025.
At 12 weeks, anti‐hair loss effects were evident with decreased Pseudomonas, Escherichia‐Shigella and Malassezia and increased Talaromyces and Cutibacterium. Lipid levels were impacted, correlating with Escherichia‐Shigella and Talaromyces. Abstract Hair loss is a complex multifactorial process.
