Analysis of some immunogenic properties of the recombinant Sporothrix schenckii Gp70 expressed in Escherichia coli.

Future Microbiology, 2019
AIM Sporothrix schenckii is the causative agent of sporotrichosis. A 70-kDa glycoprotein, Gp70, is a candidate for the development of prophylactic alternatives to control the disease, and its gene (GP70) is predicted to encode for a protein of 43 kDa ...

Potassium iodide and miltefosine inhibit biofilms of Sporothrix schenckii species complex in yeast and filamentous forms.

Medical Mycology, 2018
This study aimed to evaluate the yeast biofilm growth kinetics and ultrastructure of Sporothrix schenckii complex and assess their mature biofilm susceptibility in filamentous and yeast forms to potassium iodide (KI) and miltefosine (MIL). Yeast biofilms

The nature of the secondary conidia of Sporothrix schenckii

Mycopathologia et Mycologia Applicata, 1970
Observations of secondary conidium production in an African strain ofS. schenckii revealed that secondary conidia are produced (1) acropetally on short sterigmata, (2) sympodially on short conidial appendages, and/or (3) sympodially or acropetally on short sporogenous cells which arise directly from the primary conidium. The secondary conidia therefore

Sporothrix schenckii tenosynovitis: A case report

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1986
Sporothrix schenckii is a fungus known to cause infection of skin in the subcutaneous tissues. In this case tenosynovitis was caused by sporotrichosis resulting in rupture of the extensor tendon. Excision of the involved tenosynovium and repair of the tendons were done.

Sporothrix schenckii — a freeze‐fracture study

Journal of Basic Microbiology, 1990
AbstractFreeze‐fracture electron microscopy of a pathogenic dimorphic fungus Sporothrix schenckii revealed planar views of cell structures corresponding to those described already on thin sections. In addition to the characteristic differences in cell wall thickness between conidia, yeast forms and filaments, variations in plasma membrane invaginations
