IL-6 Degradation by Secreted Proteases From <i>Paracoccidioides restrepiensis</i>. [PDF]
Paracoccidioidomycosis is a systemic fungal disease caused by Paracoccidioides spp., predominantly affecting populations in Latin America, with Brazil reporting the highest number of cases. The infection is associated with severe pulmonary and systemic manifestations. Previous studies have highlighted the role of fungal proteases in adhesion, invasion,

A taxonomic review of the genus Paracoccidioides, with focus on the uncultivable species.
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 ...

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis AND Paracoccidioides lutzii, A SECRET LOVE AFFAIR [PDF]
SUMMARYTo commemorate Prof. Carlos da Silva Lacaz's centennial anniversary, the authors have written a brief account of a few, out of hundreds, biological, ecological, molecular and phylogenetic studies that led to the arrival of Paracoccidioides lutzii, hidden for more than a century within Paracoccidioides brasiliensis.

Fungal-host interactions: insights into microRNA in response to Paracoccidioides species [PDF]
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
