The investigation of the fungal etiologies of otomycoses is a rare occurrence in Senegal. The present study aspires to ascertain the profile of these mycoses within the confines of Ziguinchor. Conducted from 3 February 2021 to 31 August 2022, this re...

Candida species are major pathogens of bloodstream infections (BSIs) in hospitalized patients, with high mortality. This study examined Candida species distribution, clinical characteristics, and the mortality of patients with Candida BSIs. Adult pat...

Macrocybe gigantea is a rare high-temperature edible fungus known for its resistance to browning. Previous studies suggested that the anti-browning property of the SCAU4 strain might be associated with low expression levels of the TYR7523 gene. In th...

Cryptococcus neoformans is a life-threatening fungal pathogen that primarily affects immunocompromised individuals. While antiretroviral therapy has reduced incidence in developed nations, fluconazole-resistant strains and virulent environmental isol...

Microorganisms have a profound impact on the stability and ecological health of aquatic environments. Fungi, as important components of river ecosystems, play critical roles as decomposers and symbionts. A comprehensive understanding of the mechanism...

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a crucial role in the gene regulation of processes related to the response to different types of stress in fungi. These receptors act as sensors of extracellular signals and transmit the information to the int...

Edible and medicinal substances can be contaminated by fungi during harvesting, processing, and storage, leading to mycotoxin production and quality deterioration. The distribution of mycotoxigenic fungi in edible and medicinal substances was investi...

The length of incubation period, i.e., the time between first contact of host and pathogen and the appearance of symptoms, varies among diseases and depends on environmental conditions. Cercospora beticola is the most important fungal pathogen in sug...

Cystic fibrosis is a severe, inherited, life-limiting disorder, and over half of those living with CF are children. Persistent airway infection and inflammation, resulting in progressive lung function decline, is the hallmark of this disorder. Asperg...

One novel C10 polyacetylene rhamnoside, 4,6,8-decatriyne-1-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside, named xylariside A (1), together with two novel C10 polyacetylene quinovopyranosides, 4,6,8-decatriyne-1-O-α-D-quinovopyranoside, xylariside B (2), and 8E-...
