Evidence of airborne excretion of Pneumocystis carinii during infection in immunocompetent rats. Lung involvement and antibody response. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 To better understand the role of immunocompetent hosts in the diffusion of Pneumocystis in the environment, airborne shedding of Pneumocystis carinii in the surrounding air of experimentally infected Sprague Dawley rats was quantified by means of a real ...

Pneumocystis carinii karyotypes [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1990 Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis techniques were used to examine the chromosomes of Pneumocystis carinii isolated from laboratory rats and two human subjects. P. carinii organisms isolated from each of four rat colonies and from two patients each produced a distinct band pattern, but in all cases the bands ranged in size from 300 to 700 kilobase pairs.

Mit-O-My I Can't Breath! Mitomycin C-Induced Pneumonitis Leading to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, a Rare Case. [PDF]
Case Rep Oncol MedMitomycin C (MMC) pneumonitis leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a rare and life‐threatening adverse reaction to MMC. Diagnosing MMC pneumonitis can be challenging as more frequent etiologies such as bacterial infections are often targeted first due to patients being immunocompromised from chemotherapy.
