CSF rhinorrhoea as a predisposing cause of cryptococcal meningitis has been rarely reported. We hereby describe C. neoformans directly spreading to the meninges in 1 year child due to CSF rhinorrhoea and the fungus was detected on fluid cytology....
The presence of HPA in CSF is a reliable indicator of CNS involvement; however, cross‐reactions with C. immitis, C. neoformans, and Candida have been reported.115 Serological tests for anti‐Histoplasma capsulatum antibodies may be helpful. They may also be misleading and can be negative in...

Objectives : To discuss the role of microevolution ofCryptococcusneoformans. 目的: 探讨微观进化在新生隐球菌感染中的作用. 互联网 The budding cells ofCryptococcushave a narrow base. 隐球菌芽殖细胞的根很细. 互联网 Objective To evaluate some rapid methods of extracting DNA fromCryptococcusneoformans. ...
With the emergence of Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and the resulting immunocompromised state, Cryptococcus neoformans infections have gained more importance in clinical practice. Cryptococcal infections in immunocompetent hosts continue to be uncommon. We present a rare case of Cryptococcus neoformans ...
through a systematic evaluation of metabolite–drug–fungal interactions in the leading fungal meningitis pathogen,Cryptococcus neoformans, we found that brain glucose induces fungal tolerance to amphotericin B (AmB) in mouse brain tissue and patient cerebrospinal fluid via the fungal glucose repression act...
neoformans ss, C. deuterogattii (VGII) isolates from the Pacific northwest and British Columbia can infect apparently immunocompetent humans.57 Cryptococcus bacillisporus (VGIII) infections have been reported in immunosuppressed humans in southern California.58 When disease occurs in immunocompetent ...
A 2014 study found that the presence of anti-granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) autoantibodies represented a risk factor for central nervous system infections of C. gattii but not C. neoformans, suggesting that previously unrecognized immune system defects may contribute to ...
absorption. Penetration of benzimidazoles into the central nervous system has not been well studied. However, in hums with neurocysticercosis, and oral dose of 15 mg/kg resulted in albendazole levels in CSF of about 0.4 μg/ml, which exceeds the IC50for most of the C. neoformans strains ...
