Structure of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from Paracoccidioides lutzii in complex with an aldonic sugar acid
Biochimie. 2023 Sep 12:S0300-9084(23)00240-7. doi: 10.1016/j.biochi.2023.09.013. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe pathogen Paracoccidioides lutzii (Pb01) is found in South America countries Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela and Brazil, especially in the central, west, and north regions of the latter. It belongs to the Ajellomycetaceae family, Onygenales order, and is typically thermodimorphic, presenting yeast cells when it grows in animal tissues, but mycelia when in the environment, where it produces the infectious propagule. Moreover, this fungus is one of the etiologic agents of Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), the most impor...

Prevalence of < em > Toxocara < /em > eggs in Latin American parks: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: The presence of Toxocara canis eggs in public parks in Latin America is a zoonotic and public health threat for the people who go to these places, especially if children play on the ground with dirt or contaminated objects; since many pet owners and general public are not adequately informed about the mode of transmission of this parasite.PMID:37701393 | PMC:PMC10495062 | DOI:10.53854/liim-3103-7 (Source: Infezioni in Medicina)
