Isolation of fungi from nature in the region of Botucatu, state of São Paulo, Brazil, an endemic area of paracoccidioidomycosis
(Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Ministério da Saúde, 1996-12-01)
In an attempt to isolate Paracoccidioides brasiliensis from nature 887 samples of soil from Botucatu, SP, Brazil, were collected cultured in brain heart infusion agar supplemented with dextrose, in potato dextrose agar and ...
Clues to the presence of pathogenic fungi in certain environments
(B I O S Scientific Publishers Ltd, 2000-01-01)
The presence of various pathogenic fungi in rather unsuspected hosts and environments has always attracted the attention of the scientific community. Reports on the putative role of animals in fungal infections of humans ...

The presence of various pathogenic fungi in rather unsuspected hosts and environments has always attracted the attention of the scientific community. Reports on the putative role of animals in fungal infections of humans ...
Interaction of pathogenic fungi with host cells: Molecular and cellular approaches
(Elsevier B.V., 2005-09-01)
This review provides an overview of several molecular and cellular approaches that are likely to supply insights into the host-fungus interaction. Fungi present intra- and/or extracellular host-parasite interfaces, the ...
Inteins in pathogenic fungi: a phylogenetic tool and perspectives for therapeutic applications
(Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Ministério da Saúde, 2009-05-01)
Inteins or internal proteins are coding sequences that are transcribed and translated with flanking sequences (exteins). After translation, the inteins are excised by an autocatalytic process and the host protein assumes ...
Molecular detection of fungi of public health importance in wild animals from Southern Brazil
(2018-07-01)
Some animals have an important relationship with fungal infections, and searching for pathogens in animal samples may be an opportunity for eco-epidemiological research. Since studies involving wildlife are generally ...
A antracnose do sorgo.

Melanin as a virulence factor of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and other dimorphic pathogenic fungi: a minireview
(SPRINGER, 2008)
Melanin pigments are substances produced by a broad variety of pathogenic microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and helminths. Microbes predominantly produce melanin pigment via tyrosinases, laccases, catecholases, ...
Highlights in pathogenic fungal biofilms
(Asociacion Espanola Micologia-aem, 2014-01-31)
A wide variety of fungi have demonstrated the ability to colonize surfaces and form biofilms. Most studies on fungal biofilms have focused on Candida albicans and more recently, several authors have reported the involvement ...
