| two new yeasts, trichosporon debeurmannianum sp. nov. and trichosporon dermatis sp. nov., transferred from the cryptococcus humicola complex. | cryptococcus humicola, as currently defined, shows intraspecific rrna gene sequence differences. three strains of this species produced arthroconidia on cornmeal agar and belonged to the genus trichosporon in a molecular phylogeny. they clustered with the species possessing q10 as the major ubiquinone and were serotype i. sequence analyses clearly revealed that they were two new trichosporon species. the names trichosporon dermatis sp. nov. (= cbs 2043t) and trichosporon debeurmannianum sp. nov. ... | 2001 | 11411691 |
| analysis of trichosporon isolates obtained from the houses of patients with summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis. | summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis (shp) is type iii or iv allergies developed by repeated inhalation of arthroconidia of trichosporon species. we identified 105 strains obtained from the homes of 36 shp patients by analysis of the intergenic spacer (igs) 1 region, which is located between the 26s and 5s rrna genes; in addition, we analyzed the igs genotypes of the strains. serologically, trichosporon species are classified as serotype i, ii, iii, or i-iii. of the 105 strains, 43 (41.1%), ... | 2004 | 15583267 |
| occurrence and diversity of yeasts in the mid-atlantic ridge hydrothermal fields near the azores archipelago. | the yeast community associated with deep-sea hydrothermal systems of the mid-atlantic rift was surveyed for the first time. this study relied on a culture-based approach using two different growth media: a conventional culture medium for yeasts supplemented with sea salts (mypss) and the same medium additionally supplemented with sulfur (mypsss). for the evaluation of species diversity, a molecular approach involving minisatellite-primed polymerase chain reaction (msp-pcr) strain typing and sequ ... | 2005 | 16328655 |
| use of dna sequencing analysis to confirm fungemia due to trichosporon dermatis in a pediatric patient. | this is the first reported case of human disease caused by tricosporon dermatis, an organism recently transferred to the genus trichosporon from cryptococcus and now confirmed to be a human pathogen. | 2006 | 16517924 |
| bloodstream infections due to trichosporon spp.: species distribution, trichosporon asahii genotypes determined on the basis of ribosomal dna intergenic spacer 1 sequencing, and antifungal susceptibility testing. | the reevaluation of the genus trichosporon has led to the replacement of the old taxon trichosporon beigelii by six new species. sequencing of the ribosomal dna (rdna) intergenic spacer 1 (igs1) is currently mandatory for accurate trichosporon identification, but it is not usually performed in routine laboratories. here we describe trichosporon species distribution and prevalence of trichosporon asahii genotypes based on rdna igs1 sequencing as well as antifungal susceptibility profiles of 22 is ... | 2009 | 19225102 |

| experimental pathogenicity of a clinical isolate of trichosporon dermatis in a murine model. | the pathogenicity of trichosporon dermatis isolated from skin lesions of a patient has been examined in mice. balb/c mice were treated with two intraperitoneal injections of 100 mg/kg cyclophosphamide on days 4 and 1 and one subcutaneous injection of 10 mg/kg dexamethasone on day 1 pre-inoculation, and then challenged with 0.2 ml t. dermatis inoculum (1 × 10(8) cfu/ml) by topical application on an abrasive wound in the dermabrasive group and by hypodermic injection in the subcutaneous group. in ... | 2011 | 21750940 |
