Shifts in the Lung Microbiota and Antibiotic Resistance Genes Occur With Aging in Patients With Lower Respiratory Tract Infections

BioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) are a leading cause of critical illness and mortality. The lung microbiome represents an important reservoir for the exchange of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). The pathogenic microbes remain poorly understood among different age groups, including children (0–17 years), youth (18–39 years), middle‐aged ...

AcuD Gene Knockout Attenuates the Virulence of Talaromyces marneffei in a Zebrafish Model

Mycobiology, 2019
Talaromyces marneffei is the only dimorphic species in its genus and causes a fatal systemic mycosis named talaromycosis. Our previous study indicated that knockdown of AcuD gene (encodes isocitrate lyase of glyoxylate bypass) of T.

Advanced HIV Presenting With Pancytopenia and HLH‐Like Hyperinflammation Secondary to Disseminated Talaromycosis: A Case Report

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a life‐threatening hyperinflammatory syndrome that may complicate advanced HIV infection, most commonly triggered by opportunistic infections. We report a man with advanced HIV who presented with prolonged fever and pancytopenia without an identifiable source despite extensive investigation.

Expression of Cytokine Profiles in Human THP-1 Cells during Phase Transition of Talaromyces marneffei

, 2022
Talaromyces marneffei, a dimorphic fungus, exhibits temperature-dependent growth, existing in a filamentous form at 25 °C and as a yeast at 37 °C. Several studies have highlighted the important roles of macrophages in defense against T. marneffei

Next‐Generation Sequencing Expands the Diagnostic Armamentarium for Talaromyces marneffei Infection in Patients With Diverse Immune Status

International Journal of Clinical Practice, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Objective Metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS) has emerged as a promising tool for identifying rare fungal pathogens. This study evaluates the clinical utility of mNGS for the timely diagnosis of Talaromyces marneffei (TM) infection in patients with diverse immune statuses, particularly focusing on its diagnostic performance in culture ...

The pbrB gene encodes a laccase required for DHN-melanin synthesis in conidia of Talaromyces (Penicillium) marneffei. [PDF]

, 2015
Talaromyces marneffei (Basionym: Penicillium marneffei) is a significant opportunistic fungal pathogen in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus in Southeast Asia. T. marneffei cells have been shown to become melanized in vivo.

Fungal Matters: ITS Sequencing Supports the Need for Regional Fungal Baselines for ERMI and Identifies WHO Fungal Priority Pathogen Taxa in Homes of Older Adults Receiving Home‐ and Community‐Based Services

Indoor Air, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Older adults face compounded indoor exposure risk due to age‐associated immune decline, higher rates of chronic respiratory disease, and disproportionate time spent at home, yet their residential environments remain understudied. To address this gap, chemical, physical, and biological indoor air quality parameters were characterized in 42 homes of ...
