Polypeptides Targeting Paracoccidioides brasiliensis Drk1
Journal of Fungi, 2023 Considering the toxicity of conventional therapeutic approaches and the importance of precise mechanistic targets, it is important to explore signaling pathways implicated in fungal pathobiology. Moreover, treatment of paracoccidioidomycosis, a systemic mycosis caused by a dimorphic fungus, requires prolonged therapeutic regimens.

Hydroxamate production as a high affinity iron acquisition mechanism in Paracoccidioides spp. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Iron is a micronutrient required by almost all living organisms, including fungi. Although this metal is abundant, its bioavailability is low either in aerobic environments or within mammalian hosts.

Sporotrichosis and paracoccidioidomycosis in Peru: experiences in prevention and control
Revista Peruana de Medicina Experimental y Salud Pública, 2014 The epidemiological picture of sporotrichosis and paracoccidioidomycosis in Peru and Latin America is sporadic, fragmented, and geographically limited, mainly due to lack of mandatory reporting and limited diagnostic coverage.
