Onychomycosis caused by Blastoschizomyces capitatus.
Blastoschizomyces capitatus was cultured from the nail of a healthy patient with onychomycosis. The identity of the isolate was initially established by standard methods and ultrastructural analysis and was verified by molecular probing. Strains ATCC 200929, ATCC 62963, and ATCC 62964 served as reference strains for these analyses. To our knowledge, this is the first case of nail infection seco...
متن کاملEmergence of Blastoschizomyces capitatus Yeast Infections, Central Europe
We report 5 cases of disseminated infection caused by Blastoschizomyces capitatus yeast in central Switzerland. The emergence of this yeast in an area in which it is not known to be endemic should alert clinicians caring for immunocompromised patients outside the Mediterranean region to consider infections caused by unfamiliar fungal pathogens.
متن کاملFatal Blastoschizomyces capitatus sepsis in a diabetic patient with sinusitis
Blastoschizomyces capitatus is an emerging fungal pathogen. We describe a case of fungal sinusitis and invasive fungal septicemia due to B. capitatus in a 65-year-old male patient who was a known cardiac and diabetic patient. The patient was treated with antibiotics but succumbed due to delay in treatment with amphotericin-B. J Microbiol Infect Dis 2012; 2(4): 165-167
متن کاملUL146 variability among clinical isolates of human cytomegalovirus from Japan.
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a herpesvirus associated with serious diseases in immunocompromised subjects. The region between ORF UL133 and UL151 from HCMV, named ULb' is frequently deleted in attenuated AD169 and in highly passaged laboratory strains. However, this region is conserved in low-passaged and more virulent HCMV, like the Toledo strain. The UL146 gene, which is located in the ULb...
متن کاملGenetic Variability of Antigen B8/1 among Echinococcus granulosus Isolates from Human, Cattle, and Sheep in Fars Province, Southern Iran
Background: Cystic echinococcosis (CE), known as hydatid cyst, is a zoonotic parasitic infection caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus (E. granulosus). Antigen B, the major component of hydatid cyst fluid, is encoded by members of a multigene family. The present study aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity of the gene encoding antigen B8/1 (EgAgB8/1) among the main intermediate...
