Virulence gene expression in Malassezia spp from individuals with seborrheic dermatitis.
TO THE EDITOR Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is a chronic inflammatory disease that compromises skin areas rich in sebaceous glands, such as the face, scalp, and upper trunk. The condition is frequently observed in acquired immune deficiency syndrome patients (30–85% compared with 3–5% of immunocompetent adults). Its appearance is considered to be an early marker of the evolutionary trend of HIV in...
متن کاملSeborrheic dermatitis due to Malassezia species in Ahvaz, Iran
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is a frequent disorder of the skin that is distinguished by the development of erythematous patches and yellow-gray scales. It is a multifactor disease that requires predisposing factors for its progress. Presence of these factors leads to reproduction of opportunistic yeast Malassezia spp. The aim of the present study was to isolate and ident...
متن کاملIdentification of Malassezia species from immunocompetent and immunocompromised patients with seborrheic dermatitis.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Differences in prevalence, clinical and histological manifestations between seborrheic dermatitis (SD) in immunocompetent and immunocompromised patients suggest that these two populations might also differ in a spectrum of isolated Malassezia species. The purpose of our study was to analyse the prevalence of Malassezia species in immunocompromised and non-immunocomprom...
متن کاملEvaluation of Expression of Lipases and Phospholipases of Malassezia restricta in Patients with Seborrheic Dermatitis
BACKGROUND Malassezia species (spp.) are cutaneous opportunistic pathogens and associated with various dermatological diseases including seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff and atopic dermatitis. Almost all Malassezia spp. are obligatorily lipid-dependent, which might be caused by lack of the myristic acid synthesis. Recent genome analysis of M. restricta and M. globosa suggested that the absence o...
متن کاملThe Role of Malassezia spp. in Atopic Dermatitis
Malassezia spp. is a genus of lipophilic yeasts and comprises the most common fungi on healthy human skin. Despite its role as a commensal on healthy human skin, Malassezia spp. is attributed a pathogenic role in atopic dermatitis. The mechanisms by which Malassezia spp. may contribute to the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis are not fully understood. Here, we review the latest findings on the ...
