Newest firstFungal infections pose a major threat to human health with increasing incidence of antifungal resistance globally. Despite the need for novel antifungal drugs, few are currently in clinical development. Here we evaluate the antifungal activity of five phytocannabinoids against several clinically relevant fungal pathogens, with a focus on the priority pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans. Our results demonstrate that C…
Open article record in new tab ↗Melioidosis outbreaks in Taiwan frequently coincided with severe typhoons. Over a 20-year period, 782 cases of melioidosis were reported, with outbreaks often clustering in a specific hotspot area. We hypothesized that the unique hilly terrain in this hotspot trapped contaminated aerosols generated from northern to northwestern farming land within the area and restricted their spread beyond it. Across Taiwan, and…

To establish an infection in sand flies, Leishmania must escape from the endoperitrophic space to prevent excretion with remnants of the blood meal digestion. In spite of the role played regarding Leishmania survival, little is known about sand fly PM molecular components and…
