Lacazia loboi and Rhinosporidium seeberi: a genomic perspective.
In the past five years, with the use of molecular strategies the phylogenetic affinities of the two more resilient pathogens studied in medical mycology, Lacazia loboi and Rhinosporidium seeberi were finally deciphered. These studies found that L. loboi was the sister taxon to Paraccidioides brasiliensis, and R. seeberi was closely related to protistan spherical aquatic fish pathogens, located ...
متن کاملRhinosporidium seeberi: a human pathogen from a novel group of aquatic protistan parasites.
Rhinosporidium seeberi, a microorganism that can infect the mucosal surfaces of humans and animals, has been classified as a fungus on the basis of morphologic and histochemical characteristics. Using consensus polymerase chain reaction (PCR), we amplified a portion of the R. seeberi 18S rRNA gene directly from infected tissue. Analysis of the aligned sequence and inference of phylogenetic rela...
متن کاملThe taxonomy and phylogenetics of the human and animal pathogen Rhinosporidium seeberi: a critical review.
Rhinosporidum seeberi is the etiologic agent of rhinosporidiosis, a disease of mucous membranes and infrequent of the skin and other tissues of humans and animals. Because it resists culture, for more than 100 years true taxonomic identity of R. seeberi has been controversial. Three hypotheses in a long list of related views have been recently introduced: 1) a prokaryote cyanobacterium in the g...
متن کاملThe effects of biocides (antiseptics and disinfectants) on the endospores of Rhinosporidium seeberi.
No data exists on the activity of biocides (antiseptics and disinfectants) on Rhinosporidium seeberi that causes rhinosporidiosis in humans and animals. On account of the inability to culture R. seeberi, in vitro, dyes were used to assess the morphological integrity and viability of biocide-treated endospores that are considered to be the infective stage of this pathogen. Evan's Blue (EvB) iden...
متن کاملThe taxonomic status of Lacazia loboi and Rhinosporidium seeberi has been finally resolved with the use of molecular tools.
©2001 Revista Iberoamericana de Micología Apdo. 699, E-48080 Bilbao (Spain) 1130-1406/01/10.00 Euros The etiologic agents of lobomycosis and rhinosporidiosis, Lacazia loboi and Rhinosporidium seeberi respectively, have long been confined in a taxonomic limbo. Although their invasive cells in the tissues of infected humans and other animals are abundant and readily detectable histologically, the...
