Evolution of Dermatophytic Fungi: Anthropogenic and Biogenic Environmental Factors

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change presents new challenges to dermatologic care, ranging from anthropogenic factors, such as pollution that select for extremotolerant and potentially antifungal‐resistant fungi, to biogenic factors that can drive zoonotic outbreaks, which have received increased attention since the SARS‐CoV‐2 pandemic.

The Global Antifungal Susceptibility Epidemiology of Trichophyton indotineae Indicating Voriconazole as an Alternative Therapy for Recalcitrant Dermatophytosis

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The emergence of Trichophyton indotineae as a multidrug‐resistant dermatophyte has challenged conventional therapeutic approaches for dermatophytosis, leading to a significant therapeutic dilemma. The absence of formal epidemiological cutoff values (ECVs) under the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) framework has led

Efficacy Evaluation of Luliconazole‐Loaded Nanostructured Lipid Carriers in Treatment‐Resistant Dermatophytosis: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Dermatophytosis is a common superficial fungal infection that is increasingly complicated by terbinafine (TRB)‐resistant strains, especially Trichophyton indotineae. Conventional antifungals often show limited efficacy against resistant isolates, highlighting the need for novel treatments.

T. indotineae: A New Emergent Fungal Pathogen Driven by Global Travel

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The global spread of Trichophyton indotineae, a multidrug‐resistant dermatophyte, remains insufficiently understood due to limited data on migration‐associated dissemination and emerging local transmission. This study reviewed available evidence and integrated international migration statistics to assess the worldwide distribution ...

A Novel Hyphal Suspension Approach for MIC Testing of Mould Fungi

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Filamentous fungi cause a wide range of superficial and invasive infections, and antifungal susceptibility assay is essential for guiding effective therapy. Standard broth microdilution methods rely on microconidia‐based inocula; however, many clinically important moulds produce insufficient microconidia due to intrinsic ...
