Extracellular Vesicles From Fungal Infection in Humans: A Key Player in Immunological Responses

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 4, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Fungal infections cause approximately 1.6 million deaths annually. Diagnosing and treating fungal infections is difficult due to limited access to diagnostic tests and rising antifungal resistance. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) facilitate interactions between fungal cells and hosts, significantly influencing the pathogen‐host relationship ...

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.

Climate Change, Natural Disasters, and Cutaneous Fungal Infections

International Journal of Dermatology, Volume 64, Issue 8, Page 1349-1355, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Fungal infections are an important source of morbidity and mortality that can manifest as superficial or invasive diseases. Diagnostic techniques for human fungal pathogens remain problematic, and multi‐drug resistance is emerging. This review addresses the potential emergence of new fungal pathogens in changing environments and reported ...

A steric gate prevents mutagenic dATP incorporation opposite 8‐oxo‐deoxyguanosine in mitochondrial DNA polymerases

The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 13, Page 3430-3448, July 2025.
Reactive oxygen species induce mutagenic DNA lesions, such as 8‐oxo‐2′‐deoxyguanosine (8‐oxodG), which acts as a template for dCMP and dAMP incorporation through its anti and syn conformations. Specific residues must regulate the fidelity of templated 8‐oxodG.

Establishment of an experimental system to analyse extracellular vesicles during apoplastic fungal pathogenesis

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 4, Issue 2, February 2025.
Abstract Phoma stem canker disease of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) is caused by the extracellular fungal pathogen Leptosphaeria maculans. Although this pathogen resides exclusively in apoplastic spaces surrounding plant cells, the significance of extracellular vesicles (EVs) has not been assessed.

Antimicrobial Peptides: A Promising Alternative to Conventional Antimicrobials for Combating Polymicrobial Biofilms

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 9, 2025.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising alternatives to conventional treatments for polymicrobial biofilms, which increase pathogen resistance. AMPs disrupt biofilm extracellular matrices and microbial membranes, inhibiting biofilm formation and enhancing antibiotic efficacy. Current research addresses challenges like stability and production costs
