JCI Insight . 2022 Sep; 7(22). PMID: 36166305
Disseminated coccidioidomycosis (DCM) is caused by Coccidioides, pathogenic fungi endemic to the southwestern United States and Mexico. Illness occurs in approximately 30% of those infected, less than 1% of whom...

J Fungi (Basel) . 2022 Aug; 8(8). PMID: 36012847
and are closely related fungal species that cause coccidioidomycosis. These dimorphic organisms cause disease in immunocompetent as well as immunocompromised individuals and as much as 40% of the population is...

Thompson G, Ampel N, Blair J, Donovan F, Fierer J, Galgiani J, et al.
Clin Infect Dis . 2022 Jun; 75(4):555-559. PMID: 35717645
Central nervous system infection with Coccidioides spp. is fatal if untreated and complications occur even when therapy is directed by experienced clinicians. We convened a panel of clinicians experienced in...

Infect Immun . 2020 Oct; 89(1). PMID: 33106296
The pathology of human coccidioidomycosis is granulomatous inflammation with many neutrophils surrounding ruptured spherules, but the chemotactic pathways that draw neutrophils into the infected tissues are not known. We previously...
