Loop-mediated isothermal amplification-microfluidic chip for the detection of Trichophyton infection
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Trichophyton is the most pathogenic type of fungal skin infection. It often invades and grows in a keratin-rich matrix, and lesions include human skin, hair, and fingernails (toenails).

The Rare Presentation of Deep Dermatophytosis‐Trichophyton in an Immunosuppressed Patient
JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Dermatophytes typically cause superficial skin infections characterized by an active border. However, they can present atypically invading deeper in immunocompromised patients. We present a case of a 72‐year‐old woman with bullous pemphigoid who had received oral prednisolone for 3 months and developed umbilicated papules.

Keratinocytes from human skin respond as typical immune cells after the stimulation with _Trichophyton rubrum_ [PDF]
, 2007 _Trichophyton rubrum_ is the main agent causing dermatophytosis (1). Keratinocytes are considered to be the first physical barrier of defense against pathogens (2). But not only a physical barrier.

Fungal DNA‐barcoding on a chip: Magnetoresistive biosensors for yeast infection diagnosis
VIEW, EarlyView.The development of a fungal pathogen identification chip is herein demonstrated. Hybridization dynamics were tested against 58 species in silico and 4 species on chip. 95% accuracy, 91% sensitivity, 98% specificity and femtomolar limit of detection were achieved. Future perspectives include the integration of sample pre‐treatment modules.

Australasian Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Dermatophytosis is a common superficial fungal infection of the skin, most often caused by dermatophytes from the Trichophyton genus. Terbinafine, which inhibits squalene epoxidase (SQLE), is widely used as first line treatment. However, resistance to terbinafine is increasing globally, including recent reports in Australia, with origins ...
