Evaluation of Five Non-Culture-Based Methods for the Diagnosis of Meningeal Sporotrichosis

Journal of Fungi, 2023
Sporotrichosis is the main subcutaneous mycosis worldwide. Several complications, including meningeal forms, can be observed in immunocompromised individuals. The sporotrichosis diagnosis is time-consuming due to the culture’s limitations. The low fungal

Comparison of Cell Wall Polysaccharide Composition and Structure Between Strains of Sporothrix schenckii and Sporothrix brasiliensis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Sporothrix schenckii, Sporothrix brasiliensis, and Sporothrix globosa are the main causative agents of sporotrichosis, a human subcutaneous mycosis. Differences in virulence patterns are associated with each species but remain largely uncharacterized ...

Rinite fúngica por Sporothrix spp. em cão: relato de caso

Research, Society and Development, 2023
A esporotricose é uma micose de caráter zoonótico causada por fungos do gênero Sporothrix. O patógeno está presente no solo, na água, em matéria orgânica e em decomposição, sendo encontrado, portanto, em diferentes ambientes. No entanto, apesar de ser possível a transmissão sapronótica, no Brasil esta acontece principalmente por inoculação traumática ...

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.

A Sporothrix spp. enolase derived multi-epitope vaccine confers protective response in BALB/c mice challenged with Sporothrix brasiliensis

Microbial Pathogenesis, 2022
Sporotrichosis is a cosmopolitan mycosis caused by pathogenic species of Sporothrix genus, that in Brazil is often acquired by zoonotic transmission involved infected cats with S. brasiliensis. Previous studies showed that the Sporothrix spp. recombinant enolase (rSsEno), a multifunctional protein with immunogenic properties, could be a promising ...
