Talaromyces marneffei infection relapse presenting as osteolytic destruction followed by suspected nontuberculous mycobacterium infection during 6 years of follow-up: A case update

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2020
Talaromyces (formerly Penicillium) marneffei, a dimorphic fungus, is the most common opportunistic pathogen in human immunodeficiency viruses (HIV)-positive patients, but it rarely appears in HIV-negative individuals. Previously, in 2014, we reported the

Expression of Heat Shock Protein 30 in Talaromyces marneffei during Phase Transition and in Response to Heat and Oxidative Stresses

Biomedical Sciences and Clinical Medicine, 2023
OBJECTIVE Heat shock protein 30 (Hsp30) has been identified as an immunogenic, yeast phase-specific protein in Talaromyces marneffei. The purpose of this study was to investigate how the hsp30 gene and Hsp30 protein are expressed during phase ...

Mp1p Is a Virulence Factor in Talaromyces (Penicillium) marneffei

PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016
Talaromyces marneffei is an opportunistic dimorphic fungus prevalent in Southeast Asia. We previously demonstrated that Mp1p is an immunogenic surface and secretory mannoprotein of T. marneffei. Since Mp1p is a surface protein that can generate protective immunity, we hypothesized that Mp1p and/or its homologs are virulence factors.We examined the ...

The Brief Case: Pneumonia Caused by Talaromyces marneffei [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2019
A 45-year-old male was transferred to the emergency department (ED) following a syncopal event. He had struck his head on the ground but was found at the scene to be normotensive with normal blood sugar. Upon evaluation in the ED, the patient denied chest pain, palpitations, or shortness of breath.

First case report of Talaromyces marneffei infection in HIV-infected patient in the city of Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso)

Medical Mycology Case Reports, 2019
Talaromycosis is endemic in Southeast Asia and is commonly described in HIV-infected patients. We describe the first case of Talaromycosis in HIV-infected patient in Burkina Faso. This is an 83-year-old man with skin lesions on the right foot.

Novel Partitivirus Enhances Virulence of and Causes Aberrant Gene Expression in Talaromyces marneffei

mBio, 2018
Talaromyces marneffei is the most important thermal dimorphic fungus causing systemic mycosis in Southeast Asia. We report the discovery of a novel partitivirus, Talaromyces marneffei partitivirus-1 (TmPV1). TmPV1 was detected in 7 (12.7%) of 55 clinical
