Synthesis of Melanin-Like Pigments by <i>Sporothrix schenckii</i> In Vitro and during Mammalian Infection

21 Jun 2003

Abstract excerpt

Melanin has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several important human fungal pathogens. Existing data suggest that the conidia of the dimorphic fungal pathogen Sporothrix schenckii produce melanin or melanin-like compounds; in this study we aimed to confirm this suggestion and to demonstrate in vitro and in vivo production of melanin by yeast cells. S. schenckii grown on Mycosel agar produced visibly...
