Ecological Determinants of Sporotrichosis Etiological Agents

Journal of Fungi, 2018
Ecological determinants of sporotrichosis etiological agents remain poorly understood. For this reason, we performed explorations using local climate estimates to determine the temperature and humidity ranges of the environment where clinically relevant ...

Fast diagnosis of sporotrichosis caused by Sporothrix globosa, Sporothrix schenckii, and Sporothrix brasiliensis based on multiplex real-time PCR

PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019
Le diagnostic précis de la sporotrichose et l'identification au niveau de l'espèce sont essentiels pour la santé publique et la gestion appropriée des patients. Par rapport aux méthodes d'identification morphologique, les tests de diagnostic moléculaire sont rapides et ont une sensibilité élevée et des processus opératoires normalisés.

Proteins Potentially Involved in Immune Evasion Strategies in Sporothrix brasiliensis Elucidated by Ultra-High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry

mSphere, 2018
Sporothrix brasiliensis is the prevalent agent of a large zoonotic outbreak in Brazil. With the involvement of several thousands of cases, this is the largest cohort of human and animal sporotrichosis on record in the world.

Sporothrix is neglected among the neglected

PLOS Pathogens
Fungal diseases are a growing threat to human health. The last 50 years have seen an increase in the prevalence of fungal infections [1,2]. Annually, close to 1 billion people are affected by mycoses [1,3]. Close to 7 million of these infections are life-threatening, and approximately 2 million of them are fatal [3]. One of the fungal diseases that has

Feline sporotrichosis: associations between clinical-epidemiological profiles and phenotypic-genotypic characteristics of the etiological agents in the Rio de Janeiro epizootic area

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz
BACKGROUND Sporotrichosis is caused by species of the genus Sporothrix. From 1998 to 2015, 4,703 cats were diagnosed at the Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (Fiocruz), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Systematic review of literature to evaluate global distribution of species of the Sporothrix genus stored in culture collections

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
IntroductionSporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycosis caused by fungi of the genus Sporothrix sp. Phenotypic and genotypic differences have been associated with their geographic distribution, virulence, or clinical manifestation of sporotrichosis.

Genetic diversity and molecular evolution of 3-carboxymuconate cyclase (Gp60–70), the major antigen in pathogenic Sporothrix species

Mycology
Sporotrichosis, a neglected tropical disease caused by Sporothrix species, is a growing concern, particularly due to the emergence of highly virulent, cat-transmitted S. brasiliensis.

Cell walls of the dimorphic fungal pathogens Sporothrix schenckii and Sporothrix brasiliensis exhibit bilaminate structures and sloughing of extensive and intact layers.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
Sporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycosis caused by pathogenic species of the Sporothrix genus. A new emerging species, Sporothrix brasiliensis, is related to cat-transmitted sporotrichosis and has severe clinical manifestations.
