Apendicitis por Paracoccidioides brasiliensis.
La paracoccidioidomicosis es la micosis más prevalente en Sudamérica. La forma aguda afecta el sistema fagocítico mononuclear de niños y personas inmunocomprometidas. El compromiso gastrointestinal es frecuente y su patogenia implica diseminación hematógena y linfática. La linfadenomegalia abdominal causa obstrucción intestinal y abdomen agudo. En este

Interplay Between Infectious Diseases and the Endocrine System: An Overview and Clinical Insights
Infectious diseases can disrupt endocrine homeostasis through direct cytopathic injury, autoimmune dysregulation, or pathogen‐derived hormone‐like effects. Viruses and bacteria are the most frequent agents, whereas fungi and parasites contribute less commonly, even remaining clinically relevant, especially in the immunocompromised population.

The Role of Chlamydospores of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis
The role of chlamydospores in the conversion process from a mycelial-to-yeast form using the slide culture method was studied. Three clinical isolates and two other isolates from armadillo, belonging to the fungal species Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, were cultured on Sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA), potato dextrose agar (PDA) and brain heart infusion ...

An Update on Invasive Fungal Infections in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients
ABSTRACT Invasive fungal infections (IFI) remain a significant infection‐related complication in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs), the incidence of which has not changed overtime. With a focus on studies and data published after 2019, this narrative review provides an update on the epidemiology and prevention of IFIs in SOTRs and highlights ...

Random sequencing ofParacoccidioides brasiliensisgenes [PDF]
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis genome has been reported as having a size of about 30 Mb. By digestion of genomic DNA from strain IVICPb 73 (ATCC 32071), we have constructed a DNA library with an insert size average of 8 kb in Escherichia coli XL1 Blue.

ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are key mediators of intercellular communication, enabling trans‐kingdom exchange of proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and metabolites. In Giardia duodenalis, EVs contribute to parasite survival, host–pathogen interactions, and immune modulation.

A hidden battle in the dirt: Soil amoebae interactions with Paracoccidioides spp.
Paracoccidioides spp. are thermodimorphic fungi that cause a neglected tropical disease (paracoccidioidomycosis) that is endemic to Latin America. These fungi inhabit the soil, where they live as saprophytes with no need for a mammalian host to complete ...
