ultrastructure of cryptococcus neoformans. | the ultrastructure of c. neoformans was studied in two cases of cutaneous cryptococcosis. extracellular and intracellular fungi were observed. their capsules and clear zones were thick and distinct, but their cytoplasmic organelles were not obvious. in macrophages, a few stages of fungal degeneration could be observed. it could not be ascertained whether the changes were caused by anti-fungal drugs or by an influence by host macrophages. the ultrastructure of the yeast cells in vitro appeared to ... | 1982 | 6179333 |
regulation of cell-mediated immunity in cryptococcosis. i. induction of specific afferent t suppressor cells by cryptococcal antigen. | by injecting cryptococcal antigen i.v. into cba/j mice, we have simulated a level of antigenemia that is known to occur naturally in murine and human cryptococcosis. the cryptococcal antigen induced a population of lymph node (ln) cells that, upon adoptive transfer, could specifically suppress the delayed-type hypersensitivity (dth) response to cryptococcal antigen and the splenic t lymphocytes responsible for in vitro inhibition of growth of cryptococcus neoformans. the cryptococcal-antigen-ind ... | 1982 | 6172483 |
cryptococcus neoformans: pitfalls in diagnosis through evaluation of gram-stained smears of purulent exudates. | the recognition of cryptococcus neoformans in gram-stained smears of purulent exudates may be hampered by the presence of the large gelatinous capsule which apparently prevents definitive staining of the yeast-like cells. in such stained preparations, c. neoformans may appear either as round cells with gram-positive granular inclusions impressed upon a pale lavender cytoplasmic background or as gram-negative lipoid bodies. | 1980 | 6171578 |

new, special stain for histopathological diagnosis of cryptococcosis. | the masson-fontana silver stain for melanin was employed for the differentiation of pathogenic fungal species in human or mouse tissues. the fungi studied were candida albicans, candida tropicalis, candida glabrata (torulopsis glabrata), cryptococcus neoformans, cryptococcus bacillisporus, coccidioides immitis, blastomyces dermatitidis, histoplasma capsulatum, paracoccidioides brasiliensis, sporothrix schenckii, rhizopus rhizopodiformis, and aspergillus fumigatus. the tissue sections stained wit ... | 1981 | 6162857 |

r 51211 (itraconazole) therapy of murine cryptococcosis. | a new antifungal triazole, itraconazole (r51211), was compared with ketoconazole in treatment of murine cryptococcosis. itraconazole is sparingly soluble in water, and must be administered orally in solvents such as polyethylene glycol. serum concentrations are lower than those achieved with ketoconazole, but sustained for longer periods. itraconazole was more effective than ketoconazole by mic, but was similar to ketoconazole by minimum fungicidal concentration. both drugs prolonged equally sur ... | 1984 | 6098031 |
in vitro studies with r 51,211 (itraconazole). | the in vitro activity of r 51,211 (itraconazole, accepted generic name; janssen pharmaceutica, beerse, belgium), a new orally active triazole, was compared with those of two existing orally active azoles, ketoconazole and bay n 7133, and a topical agent, ro 14-4767/002. an agar dilution procedure (kimmig agar) was performed with 148 isolates of pathogenic fungi. incubation was at 30 degrees c from 48 h to 7 days. r 51,211 was dissolved in 0.2 n hcl in absolute ethanol, ketoconazole was dissolved ... | 1984 | 6089654 |

laboratory examination of organic fungicides against zoopathogenic fungi in soil. | seven commercial and five experimental organic fungicides were tested against histoplasma capsulatum, cryptococcus neoformans, allescheria boydii, and sporotrichum schenckii in a series of laboratory studies. preliminary agar dilution plate tests indicated that lanstan, dac 649, dac 469, dac 2787, he 3944, maneb, and nabam, in order of decreasing activity, inhibited all test fungi. terraclor, dexon, and he 13274 were active only in high concentration. the best fungicidal properties were exhibite ... | 1967 | 6077420 |

cryptococcus neoformans. i. nonencapsulated mutants. | seven nonencapsulated mutants of cryptococcus neoformans were isolated from an encapsulated strain of human origin. initially, the mutants were avirulent for mice. after several months of subculturing, six of the seven isolates reverted to the encapsulated state and possessed varying degrees of virulence. the results of these experiments suggest that a strong correlation exists between the presence of a capsule and the virulence of c. neoformans. | 1967 | 6057803 |

micromorphology of cryptococcus neoformans. | fine details of the internal and external morphology of cryptococcus neoformans as seen in ultrathin sections are described and illustrated with electron micrographs. the capsule characteristic of this species contained microfibrils (30 to 40 a in diameter) that appeared to radiate from the cell wall and to coil and intertwine in various directions. these thin, uniformly structured, electron-dense filaments are believed to represent complex polysaccharide molecules. the internal morphology of c. ... | 1967 | 6035270 |

medium for selective isolation of cryptococcus neoformans. | a medium has been developed that permits the selective recovery of cryptococcus neoformans from heavily contaminated materials. it employs creatinine as a nitrogen source, diphenyl (c(6)h(5)c(6)h(5)) and chloramphenicol as mold and bacterial inhibitors, and guizotia abyssinica seed extract as a specific color marker. the medium has proved to be effective in the direct isolation of cryptococcus neoformans from pigeon nests and from the air. | 1966 | 5907910 |

occurrence of dermatophytes in fresh bat guano. | evidence is presented in support of the hypothesis that fresh bat guano serves as a means of pathogenic fungi dissemination in caves. a total of 371 guano samples were collected from caves in southeastern new mexico. each sample was agitated in sterile saline and sand. the supernatant fluid was treated with an antibiotic and streaked on differential media. cultures were incubated at 25 and 37 c and examined at intervals over a 4-week period. for animal inoculation, highly concentrated inoculum w ... | 1965 | 5867652 |

in vitro studies with 5-fluorocytosine. | 5-fluorocytosine, an antifungal agent with potential value as a chemotherapeutic agent, is being evaluated in the treatment of human cryptococcosis. in vitro studies with this agent have been hindered by the fact that it is inhibited significantly in the presence of partially degraded biological substances. this loss of activity is presumed to result from a competitive inhibition between the agent and its natural analogues. procedures are described for in vitro studies with 5-fluorocytosine. the ... | 1969 | 5797940 |
systemic antifungal activity of pyrrolnitrin. | the antifungal activity of pyrrolnitrin, previously shown to be effective against superficial infections, was evaluated against experimental systemic mycoses. pyrrolnitrin was inhibitory in vitro at <0.78 to 100 mug/ml to candida albicans, cryptococcus neoformans, blastomyces dermatitidis, sporotrichum schenckii, and histoplasma capsulatum. pyrrolnitrin activity was reduced about 90% in sera. after multiple subcutaneous doses of pyrrolnitrin at 20 mg/kg, activity was recovered in mouse blood and ... | 1969 | 5785951 |

modified littman oxgall agar to isolate cryptococcus neoformans. | littman oxgall agar was modified by adding an extract of guizotia abyssinica seeds with a water diluent for rehydration. in this medium, colonies of cryptococcus neoformans became brown, but the color failed to develop in eight other yeasts and yeast phases of diphasic organisms. the depression of saprophytic fungi noted on littman oxgall agar was not lost in the modification. | 1968 | 5659362 |

pigment formation for differentiating cryptococcus neoformans from candida albicans. | when 2,3- or 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, and 3,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid are added to growth media, they are converted to a characteristic brown pigment by cryptococcus neoformans. this pigment formation has hitherto been encountered only when this microorganism was cultivated on media containing guizotia abyssinica seed. this phenomenon can be used for differentiating cryptococcus neoformans from candida albicans. possible precursors of these o-diphenols (quinic acid, ... | 1971 | 5553288 |
