Adult Kerion Celsi Caused by Trichophyton tonsurans Secondary to Black Dot Tinea Capitis.

A 34-year-old female patient presented with hair loss due to black dot tinea capitis caused by Trichophyton tonsurans for 6 months. Hair loss progressed to painful swelling for 2 months due to kerion Celsi which may be associated with treatment like topical minoxidil, antibiotic and corticosteroid previously. The patient was treated with oral Itraconazole initially without success but cured by Terbinafine eventually.

Validamycin A Enhances the Interaction Between Neutral Trehalase and 14-3-3 Protein Bmh1 in .

In agriculture, Trehalase is considered the main target of the biological fungicide validamycin A, and the toxicology mechanism of validamycin A is unknown. 14-3-3 proteins, highly conserved proteins, participate in diverse cellular processes, including enzyme activation, protein localization, and acting as a molecular chaperone. In , the 14-3-3 protein Bmh1could interact with Nth1 to respond to specific external stimuli.

PCR-RFLP for Detection of Genotypes with Resistance to Phenamacril.

Phenamacril is a cyanoacrylate fungicide that provides excellent control of Fusarium head blight (FHB) or wheat scab, which is caused predominantly by and . Previous studies revealed that codon mutations of the gene of spp. conferred resistance to phenamacril in in vitro lab experiments.

Impact of fluazinam on morphological and physiological characteristics of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a necrotrophic and filamentous fungus with a broad host range. Fluazinam is a pyridinamine fungicide with a broad spectrum of antifungal activity and had a strong inhibition effect on mycelial growth of S. sclerotiorum populations.

Effects of the dinitroaniline fungicide fluazinam on Fusarium fujikuroi and rice.

Fusarium fujikuroi is the primary causal agent of rice bakanae disease. Fluazinam is a protective dinitroaniline fungicide which could interrupt the fungal cell's energy production. Little is known about the effects of fluazinam on F.

Baseline sensitivity of Bipolaris maydis to the novel succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor benzovindiflupyr and its efficacy.

Benzovindiflupyr is a novel member of succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) fungicides. The filamentous fungus Bipolaris maydis Nisik. et Miyake was the causal agent of southern corn leaf blight (SCLB).

Activity of the dinitroaniline fungicide fluazinam against Bipolaris maydis.

Fluazinam is a dinitroaniline fungicide with broad-spectrum activities. However, the activity of fluazinam against Bipolaris maydis which is the causal agent of southern corn leaf blight is unknown yet. In this study, baseline sensitivity of B.

Netherton syndrome in one Chinese adult with a novel mutation in the SPINK5 gene and immunohistochemical studies of LEKTI.

Background: Netherton syndrome (NS) is a severe autosomal recessive ichthyosis. It is characterized by congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma, trichorrhexis invaginata, ichthyosis linearis circumflexa, atopic diathesis, and frequent bacterial infections. The disease is caused by mutations in the SPINK5 (serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 5) gene, a new type of serine protease inhibitor involved in the regulation of skin barrier formation and immunity.

[Expression, clinical and pathological significance of KIAA1173 gene in skin squamous cell carcinoma].

Objective: To clone, prepare probe for and explore the expression levels of KIAA1173 gene in skin squamous cell carcinoma (SSCC) and investigate its expression, clinical and pathological significance.

Methods: KIAA1173 gene fragment (354 bp) was cloned and its cDNA probe prepared. The expression of KIAA1173 gene in 133 SSCC tissue samples (including 52 specimens of I, 37 specimens of II, 31 specimens of III and 13 specimens of IV) and 47 normal controls were examined by in situ hybridization (ISH).
