Ploidy Determination in the Pathogenic Fungus Sporothrix spp.
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 The pathogenic clade of the Sporothrix genus comprises the etiological agents of sporotrichosis, a worldwide emergent disease. Despite the growing understanding of their successful pathogen traits, there is little information on genome sizes and ploidy ...

<i>Pap1</i> is an adhesin involved in the interaction of <i>Sporothrix schenckii</i> and <i>Sporothrix brasiliensis</i> with the host. [PDF]
Cell SurfSporothrix schenckii and Sporothrix brasiliensis are causative agents of sporotrichosis, a mycosis that affects humans and other mammals. Adhesins are considered among the primary virulence factors of these species; however, their molecular identities are currently scarce.

Virulence Factors of Sporothrix schenckii
Journal of Fungi (Basel, Switzerland), 2022 Sporothrix schenckii is one of the etiological agents of sporotrichosis. In this review, we discuss the virulence factors that have been proven to participate in the S. schenckii-host interaction. Among these known factors, we can find cell wall glycoproteins, adhesins, melanin, extracellular vesicles, and dimorphism.

Influences of the Culturing Media in the Virulence and Cell Wall of Sporothrix schenckii, Sporothrix brasiliensis, and Sporothrix globosa [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2020 Sporothrix schenckii, Sporothrix brasiliensis, and Sporothrix globosa are etiological agents of sporotrichosis, a human subcutaneous mycosis. Although the protocols to evaluate Sporothrix virulence in animal models are well described, the cell preparation before inoculation is not standardized, and several culturing media are used to grow yeast-like ...
