The fungi of the Paracoccidioides genus are dimorphic fungi, etiological agents of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), systemic mycosis of great interest in Latin America and Brazil. The antifungal arsenal available for PCM treatment is limited and most agents have high toxicity. The search for new agents that innovate the mechanism of action are of outmost importance and urgency for the treatm…
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and P. lutzii are dimorphic fungi, etiologic agents of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). Fungi of Paracoccidioides genus have mechanisms that enable them to adhere and invade host tissues and adhesion is one of the most important steps in the Paracoccidioides infection, being responsible for differences in virulence of isolates of these fungi. Because of the impo…
