A taxonomic review of the genus Paracoccidioides, with focus on the uncultivable species.
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2023 Paracoccidioides species have always been surrounded by taxonomic uncertainties. The continuing nomenclatoral muddle was caused in part by the failure of Adolfo Lutz and Jorge Lôbo to name the etiologic agents of human paracoccidioidomycosis and Jorge ...

Fungal-host interactions: insights into microRNA in response to Paracoccidioides species [PDF]
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2020 BACKGROUND Paracoccidioides spp. causes paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), an important and frequent systemic mycosis that occurs in Latin America. The infectious process begins with contact between the fungus and lung cells, and the molecular pattern of this

The Trojan Horse Model in Paracoccidioides: A Fantastic Pathway to Survive Infecting Human Cells
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is the most relevant systemic endemic mycosis limited to Latin American countries. The etiological agents are thermally dimorphic species of the genus Paracoccidioides.

Molecular detection of Paracoccidioides in soil from an urban area of southern Brazil
Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2020 INTRODUCTION: Previous studies that detected Paracoccidioides spp. DNA in soil taken from rural areas have shown this to be a valuable tool for ecological and epidemiological studies. This study reports the detection of Paracoccidioides spp. DNA in soil

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis habitat: far beyond armadillo burrows? [PDF]
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2020 Paracoccidioides spp. isolation from environmental samples is rare and hardly reproducible. Molecular techniques have facilitated the fungal detection. However, it can be still difficult. Some strategies to enhance the capacity of DNA detection have been
