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

Molecular biology of the dimorphic fungi Paracoccidioides SPP [PDF]
, 2011 Paracoccidioides spp, herein commonly referred as Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, is the etiological agent of racoccidioidomycosis (PCM), the most prevalent systemic mycosis endemic in Latin America. Many aspects of the biology of P. brasiliensis remain

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.

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.
