Superficial Malassezia folliculitis was diagnosed in 1-1.5% of all dermatology patients seen in a Dermatology Out-Patient clinic in Urumqi City, Xinjiang province, west China. It was most prevalent in healthy, middle-aged males in the warm seasons. This disease, first reported in 1969, is usually diagnosed as a systemic disease of immuno-compromised patients. Our findings indicate it is a relatively common superficial skin disease that can be managed with ketoconazole or itraconazole. 相似文献

Malassezia yeasts not only cause the well known pityriasis versicolor and folliculitis, but also play an important role in other skin diseases, including seborrheic dermatitis and atopic dermatitis. The presence of Malassezia yeasts may be confirmed by direct microscopic examination and cultures of skin scrapings. In pityriasis versicolor the direct microscopic examination is the rapidest and surest test for confirming the clinical diagnosis. The preparation will show a cluster of globose budding spores with thick or double wall and short hyphae. For detecting Malassezia in the other diseases the cultures is preferable. Culture is useful both for confirming the clinical diagnosis and for epidemiological investigations. The identification of the Malassezia species is not easy. The microscopic observation of the colony direct towards the identification of Malassezia species, but it is not enough to identify the colonies definitely. Several biochemical tests are necessary for a precise identification, such as catalase reaction, growth on media without lipid sources, ability to utilize hydrophilic emulsifiers as sole lipid source, esculin test, tryptophan test. 相似文献

Pityriasis versicolor is a superficial infection of the stratum corneum caused by Malassezia yeasts. The cutaneous Malassezia globosa and Malassezia restricta in Sudanese patients with pityriasis versicolor were elucidated using a molecular-based, culture-independent method and compared with that in healthy individuals. Scale samples were collected by applying an Opsite? transparent dressing to lesional and non-lesional sites on 29 Sudanese patients with pityriasis versicolor and 54 healthy individuals. Malassezia DNA was extracted directly from the samples. The overall level of colonization by Malassezia globosa and Malassezia restricta was analyzed by real-time PCR using a TaqMan probe. The overall level of colonization by Malassezia at the lesional sites was higher than that at the non-lesional sites for all body sites, including the face, neck, cheeks, and trunk (2.7- to 6.0-fold increase). Both M. globosa and M. restricta were detected in patients and healthy individuals. However, M. globosa predominated at lesional sites, whereas the level of colonization by both species was similar in healthy individuals. 相似文献

目的调查马拉色菌相关人群及正常人群耳耵聍中马拉色菌带菌情况。方法用结晶紫染色法对96例被调查人群耳耵聍进行马拉色菌检测,同时作培养,并以标准株作对照,用生理生化方法将耵聍中分离到的79株马拉色菌进行分类。结果马拉色菌相关人群耳耵聍中马拉色菌的直接检出率为91.84%(45/49),培养阳性率为81.63%(40/49),其中厚皮马拉色菌8株(16.33%),合轴马拉色菌10株(20.41%),糠秕马拉色菌22株(44.90%)。正常人群耳耵聍马拉色菌直接检出率为89.36%(42/47),培养阳性率为78.72%(37/47),其中厚皮马拉色菌5株(10.64%),合轴马拉色菌8株(17.02%),糠秕马拉色菌23株(48.93%),斯洛菲马拉色菌1株(2.13%)。结论马拉色菌为正常人群及马拉色菌相关人群外耳道正常菌群,两组人群中马拉色菌的分离率和菌种分布无显著性差异。 相似文献

The records of fifty patients presenting Malassezia spp. associated onychomycosis were compiled from two different mycology laboratories from Medellín, Colombia. Malassezia spp. was isolated by culture as the only etiological agent in 32% of the cases and associated to a yeast of the genus Candida in 30% of the cases. In 22% of the cases although Malassezia spp. was observed by direct examination, it was no isolated but others species were obtained. No etiological agent was isolated by culture in 16% of the cases. We found evidence of the Malassezia spp.- Candida relationship in 48% of the cases by either direct examination or by culture isolation. The level of detection of Malassezia spp. by culture isolation was of 62% as compared to the direct examination. Results showed similar patterns of distribution of epidemilogical factors for both entities: onychomycosis by Candida albicans and onychomycosis by Malassezia spp. 相似文献

The genus Malassezia includes twelve species of yeast, many of which have been mainly associated with human and canine diseases. Malassezia pachydermatis colonizes the skin and mucosal sites of healthy dogs and cats. Despite being part of the normal cutaneous microflora, Malassezia spp. yeast may become pathogenic under certain circumstances. This article reviews the factors related to both host and yeast which affect the pathogenical or commensal phenotypes of Malassezia yeasts. 相似文献

Cover illustration: Focus on Antibodies. This issue of Biotechnology Journal features relevant articles about antibody production, stability and humanization. Clearly, these developments contribute to make antibodies the most successful biopharmaceuticals, which are slowly but surely dominating the market (already constituting more than 30%percnt; of therapeutics).
