The aim of this study was to evaluate the production of virulence factors in Candida isolates from the oral cavities of 50 patients with different degrees of denture stomatitis (DS, type I, II and III) and 50 individuals ...

Most of the knowledge of the virulence determinants of extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) comes from studies with human strains causing urinary tract infections and neonatal meningitis and animal strains ...

Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) has important virulence factors related to theetiology and pathogenesis of dental caries. Through mechanism of adhesion to asolid surface, S. mutans is able to colonize the oral cavity and ...

Genome sequencing of highly virulent Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Javiana strain FARPER-220 (ST-1674) isolated from broiler chickens in Peru revealed multiple virulence factors, antibiotic resistance genes, ...

Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a fungal disease restricted to Latin countries, and its etiologic agents derive from the Paracoccidioides genus. Attenuation or loss of virulence in Paracoccidioidesspp. following successive ...

Candida species are major microorganisms isolated in denture stomatitis (DS), an inflammatory process of the mucosa underlying removable dental prostheses, and express a variety of virulence factors that can increase their ...
