Candida lusitaniae—An opportunistic pathogen
Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 1985Candida lusitaniae is a newly recognized opportunistic pathogen amongst immunocompromised patients. The epidemiology and pathology remain largely unknown. This case report describes a 27-year-old female with vasculitis who acquired a fatal C. lusitaniae fungemia.

Melioidosis: Missed opportunities and opportunistic pathogens
Medical Journal Armed Forces India, 2022A 31-year Indian homemaker, known to have Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and lupus nephritis, was admitted previously in another medical care unit with fever, hemoptysis, arthralgia, and joint swelling. She had been treated with antibiotics and corticosteroids for probable diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) with clinical and radiological resolution.

Opportunistic Pathogens in Diabetic Foot Lesions
Current Diabetes Reviews, 2012Accurate identification of infection in diabetic foot lesions is essential as the alternative can result in complicated medical and/or surgical interventions. The aim should be the differentiation between colonization and infection to avoid premature initiation of antimicrobial therapy.

Opportunistic pathogens are microbes that usually do not cause disease in healthy people, but may become virulent with immuno-compromised and unhealthy individuals. In the last decades several microorganisms normally occurring in foods have emerged as opportunistic pathogens in human and animals.

Opportunistic and pathogenic fungi
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 1991The number of fungal species reported to cause disease in man is increasing rapidly. Very few of these fungi are capable of infecting a normal host. Important progress has been achieved in an understanding of fungal pathogenicity including the mechanisms of adherence to host tissues, penetration of tissues, multiplication within the host, and the ...

Strain wars and the evolution of opportunistic pathogens
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2022Bacteria live in complex communities with multiple species and strains competing with each other. Victories and defeats within these microbial wars are largely ignored unless they have a noticeable impact on the environment or the host, for example when a disease causing strain emerges as a winner.

Torulopsis candida, a new opportunistic pathogen
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1986We described the first documented case of intravenous-catheter-associated fungemia caused by Torulopsis candida (Candida famata). The microorganism was isolated from two blood cultures and one intravenous catheter tip in a bone marrow transplant patient.

Rhodococcus Equi: An Emerging Opportunistic Pathogen?
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine, 1989AbstractHuman infection with Rhodococcus equi is apparently rare with most published reports describing the development of lung abscesses in immunocompromised hosts. Of only 18 cases of infection previously recorded, four have recently occurred in patients with the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). In Australasia, R.

Rhodococcus equi: An emerging opportunistic pathogen
Trends in Microbiology, 1996Rhodococcus equi is emerging as a cause of pneumonia in immunocompromised people, especially those with AIDS. Like mycobacteria, R. equi is phagocytosed by alveolar macrophages and replicates within them. Recent work is beginning to elucidate the cell and molecular biology of this opportunistic pathogen and the host immune response to it.
