• Abstract

  Infections caused by fungi are currently amongst the most life-threatening diseases. Among the systemic mycoses , Candida albicans infection in characterized mainly as an opportunistic infection, while paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), caused by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis , is the major cause of systemic mycosis affecting immunocompent individuals in Brazil. However, studies on the immune…

• Abstract

  Patients with paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) exhibit suppression of cellular immune response characterized by negative DTH to Paracoccidioides brasiliensis antigens, apoptosis of lymphocytes and high expression of CTLA-4, IL-10 and TGF-beta. The aim of this study was to investigate whether and how regulatory T cells (Treg cells) are involved in this immunosuppression by analyzing the number…

• Abstract

  Atherosclerosis is the main cause of mortality and mobility in the world. Among the risk factors that are associated with its development are high fat and sodium diets. In this way, the formation of the atherosclerosis plaques involves the deposition of lipids in the arterial intima and the activation of an inflammatory response in which macrophages play an important role. The activation …

• Abstract

  Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), caused by the dimorphic fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, can be classified in two main clinical forms: the adult form (AF) which presents chronic evolution, affecting primarily the lungs, skin and mucosa and the juvenile form (JF) characterized by the involvement of the mononuclear-phagocytic system, more severe and with rapid evolution. The lesions caus…
