Expressed sequence tag analysis of the human pathogen Paracoccidioides brasiliensis yeast phase: Identification of putative homologues of Candida albicans virulence and pathogenicity genes [PDF]
, 2003 Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, a thermodimorphic fungus, is the causative agent of the prevalent systemic mycosis in Latin America, paracoccidioidomycosis. We present here a survey of expressed genes in the yeast pathogenic phase of P. brasiliensis.

Immunolocalization of IFN-gamma in the lesions of resistant and susceptible mice to Paracoccidioides brasiliensis infection [PDF]
, 2011 The important role of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) in protective immunity in mycosis is well established, except for its participation in fungal granulomas. Herein, we employ immunohistochemical reactions to describe the in situ localization of IFN-gamma

Utilização do picro-sirius para corar o Paracoccidioides brasiliensis [PDF]
Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 1988 A solução do picro-sirius foi usada para corar o Paracoccidioides brasiliensis em tecidos humanos fixados em formol. À luz comum, o fungo mostra uma faixa periférica avermelhada e, à luz polarizada, apresenta um ou mais anéis birrefringentes esverdeados.
