متن کاملImportance of adhesins in virulence of Paracoccidioides spp.
Members of the Paracoccidioides genus are the etiologic agents of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). This genus is composed of two species: Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and Paracoccidioides lutzii. The correct molecular taxonomic classification of these fungi has created new opportunities for studying and understanding their relationships with their hosts. Paracoccidioides spp. have features that p...
متن کاملParacoccidioides Spp.: Virulence Factors and Immune-Evasion Strategies
Paracoccidioides spp. are dimorphic fungal pathogens responsible for one of the most relevant systemic mycoses in Latin America, paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). Their exact ecological niche remains unknown; however, they have been isolated from soil samples and armadillos (Dasypus novemcinctus), which have been proposed as animal reservoir for these fungi. Human infection occurs by inhalation of ...
متن کاملIMPORTANCE OF CATALASE ENZYME IN VIRULENCE OF ISONIAZID RESISTANT ST RAINS OF MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS IN GUINEAPIGS
In this study, twenty-five strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to isoniazid (INH) were isolated from patients with tuberculosis (TB). Nine strains (36%) were found to be virulent in guinea-pigs [root index virulence (RIV» 1 ]. The remaining sixteen strains (64%) were non-virulent (RIV <1). Of the nine strains resistant to INH as well as virulent to guinea-pigs, eight of them wer...
متن کاملCandida albicans adhesins: Biochemical aspects and virulence.
The recognition of host cells by the pathogenic yeast, Candida albicans, is probably an essential step in the pathogenesis of disease development. The interaction of yeast and hyphal mannoproteins with host cell receptors has been studied by a number of laboratories. C. albicans recognizes a variety of host cells as well as host cell extracellular matrix proteins. This observation is not unexpe...
