Beyond Domestic Cats: Environmental Detection of Sporothrix brasiliensis DNA in a Hyperendemic Area of Sporotrichosis in Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil

Journal of Fungi, 2022
In Brazil, sporotrichosis has transitioned from a rural to urban disease, driven by a shift in the initiation of infection from the accidental inoculation of organic matter to the traumatic implantation of the fungus by cats.

Zoonotic Sporotrichosis in Paraguay: A Public Health Alert. [PDF]

Mycoses
ABSTRACT Background Cat‐transmitted sporotrichosis caused by Sporothrix brasiliensis is increasingly reported in the last three decades within Brazil. Recently, other South American countries like Argentina and Chile also reported cases, while the number of reported cases in Paraguay, a Brazilian neighbour, remains quite limited with 10 feline and ...

Virulence Factors of Sporothrix schenckii

Journal of Fungi, 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.

Sporothrix schenckii Cell Wall Peptidorhamnomannans [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011
This mini-review article is dedicated to clarifying certain important biochemical aspects of Sporothrixschenckii cell wall peptidorhamnomannans. Cell wall components involved in the host interaction such as antigens as well as a gp70 adhesin are important molecules present on the surface of the yeast parasitic phase.

Acid Phosphatases of Sporothrix schenckii [PDF]

Microbiology, 1986
Sporothrix schenckii cells were grown on a medium containing yeast extract, neopeptone and glucose at 20 degrees C to obtain a mixture of mycelia and conidia, and at 35 degrees C to obtain yeast-like cells. The organism was maintained in the mycelial form, and its transformation to yeast at the higher temperature proceeded via conidia and 'intermediate

Sporothrix brasiliensis produces the highest levels of oxidative stress in a murine model among the species of the Sporothrix schenckii complex

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical
INTRODUCTION: We compared indicators of oxidative stress in the tissue of mice infected with strains from Sporothrix schenckii complex. METHODS: Mice were inoculated with Sporothrix brasiliensis, Sporothrix schenckii sensu stricto, Sporothrix globosa,
