Genetic determinants of virulence - Candida parapsilosis.
The global epidemiology of fungal infections is changing. While overall, Candida albicans remains the most common pathogen; several institutions in Europe, Asia and South America have reported the rapid emergence to predominance of Candida parapsilosis ...

Different scenarios for Candida parapsilosis fungaemia reveal high numbers of mixed C-parapsilosis and Candida orthopsilosis infections [PDF]
Nosocomial fungal bloodstream infections (BSI) are increasing significantly in hospitalized patients and Candida parapsilosis has emerged as an important pathogen responsible for numerous outbreaks.

History. C. parapsilosis complex was first isolated by Ashford (1928) from the feces of a Puerto Rican patient with diarrhea, as a species of Monilia parapsilosis that was incapable of fermenting maltose and therefore reclassified as Candida parapsilosis

Effects of caspofungin against Candida guilliermondii and Candida parapsilosis. [PDF]
The in vitro activity of caspofungin (CAS) was investigated against 28 yeast isolates belonging to Candida albicans (n = 5), Candida guilliermondii (n = 10), and Candida parapsilosis (n = 13). CAS MICs obtained by broth dilution and Etest methods clearly

Eicosanoid biosynthesis influences the virulence of Candida parapsilosis [PDF]
Lipid mediators, derived from arachidonic acid metabolism, play an important role in immune regulation. The functions of bioactive eicosanoids range from modulating cytokine signaling and inflammasome formation to anti-inflammatory and pro-resolving ...

Deciphering of Candida parapsilosis induced immune response in Drosophila melanogaster
Candida infections are the most prevalent cause of serious human mycoses and are the third most common pathogens isolated from bloodstream infections in hospitalized patients. C.

Candida parapsilosis molecular epidemiology and host defense
Aim of the study is to obtain more insight in the molecular epidemiology and the innate immunity against Candida parapsilosis. Knowledge on how C. parapsilosis spread and invade the host can lead to define adequate preventive measures to curb the rise in

Proteolytic potential of enzymes produced by candida parapsilosis and rhodotorula. Mucilaginosa isolated from liquid whey [PDF]
The search for yeast with proteolytic activity that can be explored in technology and product innovation was the objective of this study to isolate and identify strains present in liquid whey and evaluate the proteolytic activity of isolates.
