Comparative genomic analysis of human fungal pathogens causing paracoccidioidomycosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2011
Paracoccidioides is a fungal pathogen and the cause of paracoccidioidomycosis, a health-threatening human systemic mycosis endemic to Latin America. Infection by Paracoccidioides, a dimorphic fungus in the order Onygenales, is coupled with a thermally ...

Analysis of the secretomes of Paracoccidioides mycelia and yeast cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Paracoccidioides, a complex of several phylogenetic species, is the causative agent of paracoccidioidomycosis. The ability of pathogenic fungi to develop a multifaceted response to the wide variety of stressors found in the host environment is important ...

Importance of adhesins in virulence of Paracoccidioides spp.

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Members of the Paracoccidioides genus are dimorphic fungi that are the etiologic agents of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). This genus is composed of two species: Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and Paracoccidioides lutzii.

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

open access: yesPLoS 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]

open access: yesMemorias 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.
