Potential use of Nikkomycin Z as an anti- Sporothrix spp. drug
Abstract Sporotrichosis, the most common subcutaneous mycosis in several countries, is caused by the dimorphic fungus, Sporothrix spp. Given some limitations in the treatment of this disease, and the high potential of nikkomycin Z (NikZ) as an antifungal against dimorphic fungi, this study aimed to ...

A Novel In Vitro Host-Pathogen Model for Felis catus and Sporothrix Zoonotic Species Investigation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Hyperendemic zoonotic sporotrichosis, attributed to Sporothrix brasiliensis, presents a significant public health challenge in Brazil. Cats exhibit severe symptoms and high fungal loads, though their susceptibility is unclear. Sporothrix schenckii can also cause feline disease, primarily seen in Asia.
