Chlamydospore formation by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis mycelial form [PDF]
Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1989 To investigate the role of some adverse environmental conditions in chlamy-dospore formation by the mycelial form of P. brasiliensis, we cultured four P. brasiliensis isolates (18, Bt4, 1183, Pb9) at 25°C within solid agar medium either rich or poor in nutrients.

Infrared Spectroscopy as a Promising Tool for Diagnosing and Typing Human Pathogenic Fungi
Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Fungal infections are increasingly recognised as a global health challenge, responsible for millions of cases annually and substantial mortality, especially in immunocompromised individuals. Yet, the diagnosis of these infections remains notoriously difficult, often delayed by slow culture‐based methods or hindered by the high cost and ...

Identification and characterization of expressed retrotransposons in the genome of the Paracoccidioides species complex [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Species from the Paracoccidioides complex are thermally dimorphic fungi and the causative agents of paracoccidioidomycosis, a deep fungal infection that is the most prevalent systemic mycosis in Latin America and represents the most important

Global Challenges, Volume 9, Issue 12, December 2025.This study integrates computational and experimental approaches to explore how short dipeptides modulate the activity of chorismate synthase. Unexpectedly, the GluAsp dipeptide enhanced enzyme activity by promoting a transient surface channel near the active site, possibly revealing a new structural feature relevant for microbial metabolism and ...

Fungal DNA‐barcoding on a chip: Magnetoresistive biosensors for yeast infection diagnosis
VIEW, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.The development of a fungal pathogen identification chip is herein demonstrated. Hybridization dynamics were tested against 58 species in silico and 4 species on chip. 95% accuracy, 91% sensitivity, 98% specificity and femtomolar limit of detection were achieved. Future perspectives include the integration of sample pre‐treatment modules.

Flagellins as Vaccine Adjuvants and Cancer Immunotherapy: Recent Advances and Future Prospects
Immunology, Volume 176, Issue 3, Page 277-303, November 2025.The figure depicts the role of flagellin in immune cells. Flagellin interacts with TLR5, resulting in the formation of homodimers and the recruitment of MyD88, which activates the IκB and MAPK signalling pathways. This results in the activation of NF‐κB and AP‐1, producing TNF‐α, IL‐6, IL‐8, and IL‐12.
