25. Cryptococcoma mimicking a brain tumor in an immunocompetent patient: case report of an extremely rare presentation
ABSTRACT CONTEXT: Central nervous system (CNS) infectious diseases have high prevalence in developing countries and their proper diagnosis and treatment are very important for public health planning. Cryptococcus neoformans is a fungus that may cause several CNS manifestations, especially in immunocompromised patients. Cryptococcal meningitis is the most co

27. Achados de ressonância magnética em criptococose do sistema nervoso central: comparação entre pacientes imunocompetentes e imunossuprimidos
Resumo Objetivo: Avaliar os padrões de ressonância magnética (RM) associados à infecção do sistema nervoso central por Cryptococcus sp. em relação ao status imunológico dos pacientes. Materiais e Métodos: Dados de RM de 19 casos de neurocriptococose foram analisados retrospectivamente de janeiro de 2000 a março de 2014. As características de RM

28. SÍNTESE DE 2-(2-PIRIDIL)QUINOLINAS PROMOVIDA POR MICRO-ONDAS E SUAS ATIVIDADES ANTIFÚNGICAS
In this work a series of 2-(2- pyridyl)quinolines were prepared via a Povarov reaction between anilines, 2-pyridinocarbadehyde and ethyl vinyl ether under microwaves heating conditions. The optimized conditions herein reported allowed the preparation of several pyridylquinolines in yields in the range of 30-83%, some of them not previously accessible by this

29. Criptocoma nasofaríngeo equino devido a Cryptococcus gattii
RESUMO: Cryptococcus gattii é frequentemente associada a infecções pulmonares e sistêmicas em humanos e animais. Neste relato descreve-se um caso de criptococoma nasofaríngeo por C. gatti em um equino. Uma égua de 10 anos, apresentou uma massa obstruindo a orofaringe. Macroscopicamente a massa era assimétrica, e estava aderida aos seios etmoidais obs

30. Cryptococcus neoformans and C. gattii isolates from both HIV-infected and uninfected patients: antifungal susceptibility and outcome of cryptococcal disease
ABSTRACT One of the factors causing treatment failure in cryptococcosis is the resistance of Cryptococcus spp. to antifungal drugs, which has motivated the susceptibility assessment of isolates from patients with cryptococcosis, different clinical conditions and infections outcomes. Clinical isolates of Cryptococcus spp. from three different groups of patien

31. Fatal Cryptococcus gattii genotype VGI infection in an HIV-positive patient in Barranquilla, Colombia
ABSTRACT Cryptococcosis is a major invasive fungal disease related worldwide with the AIDS population. New reports of HIV/AIDS cases to the national public health surveillance system (SIVIGILA) in Colombia have shown that there is a growing community at risk of contracting cryptococcosis throughout the country who do not have access to ART. Even though the m

32. The epidemiology of cryptococcosis and the characterization of Cryptococcus neoformans isolated in a Brazilian University Hospital
ABSTRACT Cryptococcosis, a systemic disease caused by the fungus Cryptococcus neoformans/ Cryptococcus gattii is more severe in immunocompromised individuals. This study aimed to analyze the epidemiology of the disease, the molecular characteristics and the antifungal susceptibility of C. neoformans isolated from patients treated in a Brazilian university ho

33. Synergistic antifungal activity of the lipophilic fraction of Hypericum carinatum and fluconazole
ABSTRACT Hypericum species, Hypericaceae, are recognized as a source of therapeutical agents. Purified fractions and isolated compounds have been shown antimicrobial activity. As the indiscriminate use of antifungals and the increase of infections caused by emerging species are leading to the search of new alternative treatments, the aim of this study was to

34. Use of fluorescent oligonucleotide probes for differentiation between Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and Paracoccidioides lutzii in yeast and mycelial phase
BACKGROUND Fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) associated with Tyramide Signal Amplification (TSA) using oligonucleotides labeled with non-radioactive fluorophores is a promising technique for detection and differentiation of fungal species in environmental or clinical samples, being suitable for microorganisms which are difficult or even impossible

35. Improvement of Solubility and Antifungal Activity of a New Aminothiophene Derivative by Complexation with 2-Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin
This study aimed to prepare a complex of 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and 6CN10, a poorly water soluble 2-aminothiophene derivative with antifungal properties, by freeze-drying technique. The complex was characterized by thermal analysis, infrared/Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. In addition, we used the d

36. Disseminated cryptococcosis with skin lesions: report of a case series
Abstract Cryptococcosis is a common fungal infection in immunocompromised patients, caused by genus Cryptococcus, presenting with meningitis, pneumonia, and skin lesions. Cutaneous presentation can be varied, but specifically in solid organ transplant recipients (iatrogenically immunocompromised), cryptococcosis should always be considered in the differentia
