We review here the advances in the understanding of the immunopathology of human
paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). Its investigation must take in account the intriguing natural …

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is the etiologic agent of paracoccidioidomycosis, a disease
confined to Latin America and of marked importance in the endemic areas due to its …

Paracoccidioides is a fungal pathogen and the cause of paracoccidioidomycosis, a health-
threatening human systemic mycosis endemic to Latin America. Infection by …

Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is the most prevalent mycosis in Latin-America. As for other
mycosis, its importance of has been largely underestimated, partially due to the limited …

Background Paracoccidioidomycosis is a systemic mycosis caused by Paracoccidioides

Exosome-like vesicles containing virulence factors, enzymes, and antigens have recently
been characterized in fungal pathogens, such as Cryptococcus neoformans and …

Background Fungal extracellular vesicles are able to cross the cell wall and transport
molecules that help in nutrient acquisition, cell defense, and modulation of the host defense …

By means of genealogical concordance phylogenetic species recognition (GCPSR), we
