The capacity for pathogenic fungi to change morphology during their lifecycle is widespread.
However, relatively few fungi are considered dimorphic, which refers to the ability to switch …

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and P. lutzii are etiologic agents of paracoccidioidomycosis
(PCM), an important endemic mycosis in Latin America. During its evolution, these fungi …

Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a deep systemic mycosis caused by human fungal
pathogens of the Paracoccidioides genus. The disease is geographically restricted to …

Background: Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a chronic disease that causes sequelae and
requires prolonged treatment; therefore, new therapeutic approaches are necessary. In view …

Paracoccidioides spp. are dimorphic fungal pathogens responsible for one of the most
relevant systemic mycoses in Latin America, paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). Their exact …

The ability of Paracoccidioides to defend itself against reactive oxygen species (ROS)
produced by host effector cells is a prerequisite to survive. To counteract these radicals …

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 …

Iron is essential for the proliferation of fungal pathogens during infection. The availability of
iron is limited due to its association with host proteins. Fungal pathogens have evolved …

Paracoccidiodomycosis (PCM) is a systemic mycosis caused by the fungus
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and Paracoccidioides lutzii. The disease requires long and …

Paracoccidioidomycosis is a systemic mycosis endemic to Latin America, with
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and P. lutzii being the causal agents of this disorder. Several …
