Pathogenesis of tinea [PDF]

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, 2010
SummaryDermatophytes are hyphomycetes that can degrade keratin. This puts them in a position to cause infections of the keratin‐containing superficial skin. The resulting clinical picture is called tinea. The pathogenesis and course of tinea is decisively determined by pathogen‐related factors and by the defense mechanisms of the host.

Genome‐Wide Protein Interaction Analysis in Parasitic Gyrodactylus Flatworms–Fish Hosts System and Drug Target Identification

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Genomic data offer a powerful tool for studying the molecular interactions between parasites and their hosts, but they remain scarce for parasitic monogenean flatworms. This study presents the first high‐quality phased genome assembly for monogeneans (Gyrodactylus kobayashii), and uses it to predict key interacting proteins between monogenean parasite ‐
