The Significance of Mono‐ and Dual‐Effective Agents in the Development of New Antifungal Strategies

Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 105, Issue 1, January 2025.
The future of treating challenging fungal infections lies in novel therapies targeting new antifungal targets, overcoming resistance mechanisms, and exploring innovative dual inhibitors. ABSTRACT Invasive fungal infections (IFIs) pose significant challenges in clinical settings, particularly due to their high morbidity and mortality rates.

Imported Systemic Endemic Mycoses in Spain 1997–2021: An Analysis of a National Hospital Database

Mycoses, Volume 68, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Systemic endemic mycoses are systemic fungal infections typically found in tropical and subtropical regions. Their global incidence is rising, including in nonendemic countries, mainly due to migration and international travel. They are a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, especially in immunocompromised patients ...

Unraveling the Genetic Predisposition on Respiratory Infections: From Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms to Inborn Errors of Immunity

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background: The complex interplay between the human genome and microbial pathogens has captured scientific interest, leading to profound insights into the genetic basis of host’s susceptibility to infections. Objective: Here, we explore the spectrum of genetic susceptibility in infectious diseases, ranging from common single nucleotide polymorphisms ...

Perspective on donor‐derived infections in Italy

Transplant Infectious Disease, Volume 26, Issue S1, November 2024.
Abstract Background Expected and unexpected donor‐derived infections (DDI) are a rare event in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients but are potentially associated with significant morbidity and mortality. To assure the microbial safety of transplantation, both national guidelines and the current, regional, and local epidemiology of infectious ...

Species boundaries in the human pathogen Paracoccidioides

Fungal Genetics and Biology, 2017
The use of molecular taxonomy for identifying recently diverged species has transformed the study of speciation in fungi. The pathogenic fungus Paracoccidioides spp has been hypothesized to be composed of five phylogenetic species, four of which compose the brasiliensis species complex.
