Nanoemulsion improves the antifungal activity of allylic thiocyanates against yeasts and filamentous pathogenic fungi
Dalla Lana, Daiane Flores; Giuliani, Laura Minussi; Reoleon, Jéssica Brandão; Lopes, William; Vainstein, Marilene Henning; Danielli, Letícia Jacobi; Bergamo, Vanessa Zafaneli; Pippi, Bruna; Appel, Miriam Angela Marchi; Teixeira, Mário Lettieri; Oliveira, Luis Flávio Souza de; Machado, Michel Mansur; Andrade, Saulo Fernandes de; Sá, Marcus Mandolesi; Ferreira, Misael; Munaretto, Laiéli dos Santos; Cruz, Letícia; Silveira, Gustavo Pozza; Silva, Edilma Elayne da; Fuentefria, Alexandre Meneghello (2018) [Journal article]We report the antifungal and antichemotactic activities of a series of allylic thiocyanates with low toxicity. We also show improved antifungal activity of the most promising compound when used in a nanoemulsion (NE). The ... -
Scanning electron microscopy and machine learning reveal heterogeneity in capsular morphotypes of the human pathogen Cryptococcus spp.
Lopes, William; Cruz, Giuliano Netto Flores; Rodrigues, Márcio L.; Vainstein, Mendeli Henning; Silva, Lívia Kmetzsch Rosa e; Staats, Charley Christian; Vainstein, Marilene Henning; Schrank, Augusto (2020) [Journal article]Phenotypic heterogeneity is an important trait for the development and survival of many microorganisms including the yeast Cryptococcus spp., a deadly pathogen spread worldwide. Here, we have applied scanning electron ... -
Transcriptomic analysis reveals that mTOR pathway can be modulated in macrophage cells by the presence of cryptococcal cells
Piffer, Alicia Corbellini; Santos, Francine Melise dos; Thomé, Marcos Paulo; Rosa, Camila Diehl da; Garcia, Ane Wichine Acosta; Kinskovski, Uriel Perin; Schneider, Rafael de Oliveira; Gerber, Alexandra Lehmkuhl; Feltes, Bruno César; Schrank, Augusto; Vasconcelos, Ana Tereza Ribeiro de; Lenz, Guido; Silva, Lívia Kmetzsch Rosa e; Vainstein, Marilene Henning; Staats, Charley Christian (2021) [Journal article]Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii are the etiological agents of cryptococcosis, a high mortality disease. The development of such disease depends on the interaction of fungal cells with macrophages, in which ...
