Infection and pulmonary vascular diseases consortium: United against a global health challenge
Abstract Leveraging the potential of virtual platforms in the post‐COVID‐19 era, the Infection and Pulmonary Vascular Diseases Consortium (iPVDc), with the support of the Pulmonary Vascular Research Institute (PVRI), launched a globally accessible educational program to highlight top‐notch research on inflammation and infectious diseases affecting the ...

“We've got to get out”—Strategies of human pathogenic fungi to escape from phagocytes
Human pathogenic fungi survive inside and escape from phagocytes. Following intracellular replication or filamentation, they employ different strategies including lytic and non‐lytic escape, programmed cell death pathways, or persistence. Subsequently, this affects the host immune response and vice versa, which might offer new targets for research and ...

Impact of Paracoccin Gene Silencing on Paracoccidioides brasiliensis Virulence
Among the endemic deep mycoses in Latin America, paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), caused by thermodimorphic fungi of the Paracoccidioides genus, is a major cause of morbidity.

Effect of ArtinM on Human Blood Cells During Infection With Paracoccidioides brasiliensis
Infections caused by fungi are prominent in our environment and can be potentially fatal. paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), caused by fungi of the Paracoccidioides genus, is the most frequent systemic mycosis in Brazil and the main cause of death among ...

Comparative genomic analysis of human fungal pathogens causing paracoccidioidomycosis.
Paracoccidioides is a fungal pathogen and the cause of paracoccidioidomycosis, a health-threatening human systemic mycosis endemic to Latin America. Infection by Paracoccidioides, a dimorphic fungus in the order Onygenales, is coupled with a thermally ...
