Understanding the possible methodologies for the rapid and inexpensive identification of
fungal infections is essential for disease diagnosis, but there are some limitations. To help …

There has been a global upsurge in fungal infections due to rise in immunodeficiencies,
debilitation and situations of violated anatomical barriers. The available antifungal repertoire …

Glycoprotein gp43 is an immunodominant diagnostic antigen for paracoccidioidomycosis
caused by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. It is abundantly secreted in isolates such as …

Background Paracoccin (PCN) is an N-acetylglucosamine-binding lectin from the human
pathogenic fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. Recombinant PCN (rPCN) induces a T …

Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic mycosis caused by the dimorphic fungus within
the genus Paracoccidioides, particularly Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. The traditional …

Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is an endemic Latin American mycosis caused by
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and also by the recently described P. lutzii. The systemic …

Among the endemic deep mycoses in Latin America, paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM),
caused by thermodimorphic fungi of the Paracoccidioides genus, is a major cause of …

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis PbP27 gene encodes a protein localized in both the fungal
cytoplasm and cell wall. The parasitic infectious form produces this protein preferentially with …

Background: Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic mycosis caused by dimorphic
fungi Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and Paracoccidioides lutzii. It is prevalent in Latin …

In fungal pathogens the cell wall plays an important role in host-pathogen interactions
because its molecular components (eg, polysaccharides and proteins) may trigger immune …
