S. schenckii, a dimorphic fungus, is considered the only pathogenic member of the genus Sporothrix. Recently, a new species, Sporothrix cyanescens, was added to the genus. Some of the isolates upon which the species description was based were isolated from patients with mycosis of human skin. Whether or not S. cyanescens is another etiologic agent of sporotrichosis remains to be proven.

Although patients receiving secondary prophylaxis (chronic maintenance therapy) might be at low risk for recurrence of systemic mycosis when their CD4+ T-lymphocyte counts increase to >100 cells/ microliter in response to HAART, the number of patents who have been evaluated is insufficient to warrant a recommendation to discontinue prophylaxis. 

Psoralens, or furocoumarins, are a class of heterocyclic aromatic compounds used in photochemotherapy treatment of a variety of skin diseases such as psoriasis, vitiligo, mycosis fungoides, polymorphous light eruption, and more [68-71]. The compounds are present in numerous plants throughout the world. In photoche-...

The antimykotie amphotericine is eneapsulated in liposomes and marketed as Am-Bisome" against severe systemic mycosis. The liposomal encapsulation reduces the toxicity of amphotericine while increasing the half-life of the drug and plasma level peaks [31], For stability reasons, the parenteral formulation is a lyophilized powder whieh has to be reeonstituted by adding the solvent just before administration.

In 1989, Tanida et al. reported the isolation of a 10-methoxy derivative of staurosporine, TAN-999 (296) from the culture broths of Nocardiopsis dassonvillei C-71425 in its optically active form [a]o +42.0 (c 0.50, DME). This isolate functions as a macrophage activator, useful for the treatment of mycosis, bacterial infection, and cancer (291,292).
