Drug Repurposing for Paracoccidioidomycosis Through a Computational Chemogenomics Framework

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is the most prevalent endemic mycosis in Latin America. The disease is caused by fungi of the genus Paracoccidioides and mainly affects low-income rural workers after inhalation of fungal conidia suspended in the air.

Simultaneous infection of human host with genetically distinct isolates of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis [PDF]

, 2010
This study is the first report on genetic differences between isolates of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis from a single patient. We describe a simultaneous infection with genetically distinct isolates of P.

Central Nervous System Infection with Other Endemic Mycoses: Rare Manifestation of Blastomycosis, Paracoccidioidomycosis, Talaromycosis, and Sporotrichosis

Journal of Fungi, 2019
The central nervous system (CNS) is not a major organ involved with infections caused by the endemic mycoses, with the possible exception of meningitis caused by Coccidioides species.

Depletion of regulatory T cells in ongoing paracoccidioidomycosis rescues protective Th1/Th17 immunity and prevents fatal disease outcome

Scientific Reports, 2018
In human paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), a primary fungal infection typically diagnosed when the disease is already established, regulatory T cells (Treg) cells are associated with disease severity.

Diversity in Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. the PbGP43 gene as a genetic marker [PDF]

, 2008
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is a temperature-dependent dimorphic fungus and the agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), which is prevalent in rural workers of Latin American countries. Until a decade ago, most of the studies involving P.

Regulatory T cells in paracoccidioidomycosis

Virulence, 2018
This review addresses the role of regulatory T cells (Tregs), which are essential for maintaining peripheral tolerance and controlling pathogen immunity, in the host response against Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, a primary fungal pathogen.

Paracoccidioidomycosis in Amerindian populations of the Brazilian Suruí tribe: a clinical and laboratory study of two cases [PDF]

, 1999
Paracoccidioidomycosis has been considered the most frequent endemic systemic mycosis in Latin America. Although most cases of paracoccidioidomycosis involve rural workers, this systemic fungal disease has been scarcely reported among Amerindian ...

Th17-Inducing Cytokines IL-6 and IL-23 Are Crucial for Granuloma Formation during Experimental Paracoccidioidomycosis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), a chronic granulomatous disease caused by the thermally dimorphic fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and Paracoccidioides lutzii, has the highest mortality rate among systemic mycosis.
