RNA silencing in the dermatophyte Microsporum canis.
Dermatomycoses caused by Microsporum canis are frequent in domestic animals and easily transmissible to humans. Several proteases secreted by this fungus were identified as potential virulence factors, but the construction of deficient strains is required to investigate their role in the pathogenesis of the disease. Using target genes encoding two of these proteases, a first evaluation of the u...
متن کاملThe routine cultural identification of Microsporum ringworm of the scalp.
Tinea capitis in the United States is caused principally by Microsporum audouini and M. canis (lanosum). Identification of the responsible fungus is important in determining the prognosis. Identification of M. audouini by the usual method of planting infected hairs on agar media in a test tube requires 7 to 14 days. M. canis colonies are recognizable in 5 to 8 days. The method described below p...

متن کاملKerion caused by Microsporum audouinii in a child.
Kerion celsi is rarely associated with Microsporum audouinii infection. We report the case of a 3-year-old girl with a kerion celsi caused by M. audouinii and successfully treated with oral terbinafine. Fungi identification was made by macro and microscopical colony morphology analyses and molecular (genotypic) studies.
