Phaeohyphomycosis in Transplant Patients [PDF]
Phaeohyphomycosis is caused by a large, heterogenous group of darkly pigmented fungi. The presence of melanin in their cell walls is characteristic, and is likely an important virulence factor. These infections are being increasingly seen in a variety of clinical syndromes in both immunocompromised and normal individuals.

Phaeohyphomycosis: A 10-Year Review (2006–2016)
Background Phaeohyphomycosis is a rare infection caused by dematiaceous (pigmented) fungi, frequently reported in tropical and sub-tropical countries. Data regarding this infection is sparse and comprises mainly of case reports.

We sequenced fungal DNA in barren soils sampled from 12 sites along a 1900‐km transect through sub‐ and Maritime Antarctica and Patagonia. Using LASSO regression, we found air temperature ‐ and notably mean annual air temperature (BIO1) ‐ to be a highly significant predictor for the richness and relative abundance of soilborne plant pathogens.

Experimental Phaeohyphomycosis of Curvularia lunata
Originally considered to be a plant pathogen, reports of phaeohyphomycosis due to Curvularia lunata (C. lunata) in animals and humans are increasing. However, studies on the pathogenesis, virulence, and epidemiology of C. lunata have rarely been discussed. In the present study, BALB/c mice were experimentally inoculated with C.

Research Progress in Photodynamic Therapy for Infectious Skin Diseases
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a noninvasive therapeutic strategy that utilizes the synergistic interaction among a photosensitizer, light of a specific wavelength, and tissue oxygen to generate cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby selectively destroying pathological tissues.

Air samples collected at three areas in each province of the Basque Country (Spain) were incubated at 25°C and 37°C for Sabouraud plates (SAB) and at 37°C for plates supplemented with voriconazol (SAB‐VCZ). The potentially resistant isolates from SAB‐VCZ plates were identified and their abundance and diversity were determined.
