Biofilm formation by Aspergillus fumigatus.
Aspergillus fumigatus is a well adapted, opportunistic fungus that causes a severe and commonly fatal disease, invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), in highly immunocompromised patients, aspergilloma in patients with lung cavities and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) in hypersensitive individuals. Recent studies have suggested that biofilm formation by A. fumigatus may be one of...
متن کاملHomogentisic Acid Oxidase*
In the course of a study of the properties of the homogentisic acid oxidase of rat liver the activity of other animal tissues has been briefly examined. The enzyme has been reported to occur in beef and hog (I), guinea pig (2), and rabbit (3) livers and in a strain of Pseudomonas (4). The experiments reported here show that the enzyme is also present in pigeon liver and in guinea pig, rabbit, p...
متن کاملIdentification of Aspergillus fumigatus by PCR
The specifity of gene encoding the ribotoxin protein in Aspergillus fumigatus was determined by PCR amplification of a portion of the gene. All A. fumigatus strains studied showed the presence of amplifiable ribotoxin product, while none of the other fungal species, with the exception of Aspergillus restrictus, showed this amplification product. Hence, this method may be used for rapid and spec...
متن کاملInfection of the pleura by Aspergillus fumigatus.
Pleural aspergillosis occurs mostly in established cases of pleural empyema with a broncho-pleural fistula. Ten such patients are reported here: in all, Aspergillus fumigatus infection was related to tuberculosis. In three cases with an active, sputum-positive tuberculous process the pleural empyema was a complication of spontaneous pneumothorax in two, and of lung resection in one. In two case...
متن کاملGenomics of Aspergillus fumigatus.
Aspergillus fumigatus is a filamentous fungal saprophyte that is ubiquitous in the environment. It is also a human pathogen and induces allergenic response, negatively impacting health care and associated costs significantly around the world. Much of the basic biology of this organism is only poorly understood, but the recent completion and publication of its genome sequence provides an excelle...
