피부사상균증이 있는 개와 고양이에서 분리한 9주의 Microsporum canis와 5주의 Microsporum gypseum에서 ribosomal DNA를 추출하여 internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) gene을 PCA로 증폭한 후 sequencing을 실시하여, 각 사상균의 계통학적 관계를 조사하였다. M canis 분리주 9주의 ITS1 gene의 nucleotide sequence는 100% 일치하였으며 M gypseum 분리주 5주의 nucleotide sequence도 100% 일치하였다. M canis 분리주 9주의 계통분석 결과 미국, 일본, 호주 및 유럽에서 분리된 M canis와 같은 cluster에 속하였으며 다른 Microsporum spp와는 유전적으로 다른 cluster를 형성하였다. 그러나 M canis와 M distortum, M equinum, M ferrugineum은 유전적으로 매우 가까운 위치에 있었다. M gypseum 분리주는 M canis와는 다른 cluster를 형성하였다. ITS1 gene의 분자생물학적 분석은 Microsporum spp를 확인하고 그들의 유전학적 관계를 이해하는 유용한 정보를 제공하는 것으로 생각된다.

젊은 말과 그 관리인에게 발생한 Microsporum canis 감염에 의한 백선에 대해 보 고하였다. 말과 사람에 있어서의 진단은 피부 병변의 KOH 표본에서 피부사상균을 직접 증명 하고,감염된 인설의 순수 배양물로부터 Microsporum canis를 분리한 것에 근거를 두었다. 말과 사람에 서 분리하고, PHOL 염색액으로 염색한 Microsporum canis는 현미경으로 자세히 관찰했을 때 형태학 적인 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 말에 있어서 옥도정기와 사람에 있어서 miconazole에 의한 국 소 요법은 효과적이었다. 병력은 관리인이 말로부터 감염된 것을 제시하였다.

1999년 3월부터 12월에 걸쳐 대구지방에서 피부사상균증에 이완된 개 110두에서 57주(51.8%)의 Microsporum canis를 분리하여 표준균주 1주와 함께 육안적, 현미경적 및 생물학적 성상을 조사하고 고찰하였다. M canis 57주는 집락의 성상 및 현미경적 소견에 따라 4가지(A~D)형으로 나눌 수 있었다. A형(white-yellow type)은 73%(42주)이며 표준주(ATCC 18615)의 전형적인 집락과 동일한 형이며, B형(fluffy type)은 21.1%(12주)이고, C형(flat type)은 3.5%(2주)이며, D형(radial groove type)은 1.7%(1주)이었으며, 이들 형은 전형적인 대분생자의 수적 차이가 인정되었다. 한편 계대가 진행됨에 따라 3가지 변이형(E~G)이 출현하였다. E형은 B형 12균주 중 25%(3주)가 변이한 균주로 갈색색소를 산생하고 비전형적인 대분생자가 관찰되며, G형은 B형의 변이주로 색소 및 대분생자가 소실된 형으로 25%(3주) 이었고, F형은 A형 42균주 중 7.1%(3주)가 변이한 균주로 섬유다발 모양의 성상과 뒷면의 색소 소실 및 비전형의 대분생자, 아령 모양의 균사가 관찰되었다. M canis 58주(표준주 포함)의 urease test, rice medium test, 모발천공시험에서 정도의 차이는 있었지만 전 균주가 양성이었다.

The aim of this study was to determine tile inhibitory effect of granitic powder against Microsporum canis. Fourteen strains of M. canis isolated from dgs and cats with fungal dermatitis and two strains isolated from humans were used in this study. The in vitro antifungal activities of granitic powder and 5 commercialized antifungal agents (terbinafine, itraconazole, ketoconazole, griseofulvin and fluconazole) were compared. The antifungal effect was measured by the broth microdilution method and was expressed as the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC). The MIC value of the granitic powder was ranged from 31.3 to 250mg/ml. Terbinafine showed the lowest MIC value among the 5 commercial antifungal agents $(0.0078-0.125{\mu}g/ml)$, while fluconazole showed the highest MIC values $(125-1,000{\mu}g/ml)$. The MIC range of itraconazole, griseofuvin and ketoconazole were $0.125-0.5{\mu}g/ml\;0.625-5{\mu}g/ml$ and $10-40{\mu}g/ml$ respectively. The Geometric mean(GM) MIC values of terbinafine and ketoconazole against M. canis isolated from human were $0.0078{\mu}g/ml\;and\;10{\mu}g/ml$, respectively, while the GM MIC values of these agents against M. canis isolated from animals were $0.063{\mu}g/ml\;and\;31.4{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. Other antifungal agents did not show any significant differences in antifungal activity against M. canis of animal or human origin. Although granitic powder was shown to have antifungal activity, it was much lower than that of the 5 commercialized antifungal agents.

The fungistatic effects of extract and crystal (A) of Berberis Koreans Palibin, a common shrub in Korea, were obeserved and compared with undecylenic acid and vegetable oil. In vitro studies, the spores of fungi were inoculated on Sabouraud's glucose agar media which contained compounds of various concentration, and the growth of the fungi was observed for 3 weeks. The species of the fungi used in these experiments were Epidermophyton floccosum, Microsporum gypseum, Microsporum audouini, Microsporum canis, Microsporum nanum, Microsporum cookei, Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Trichophyton tonsurans and Trichophyton verrucosum. The results of the studies were as follows: 1. The growth of E. floccosum, M. audouni, M. canis, M. nanum, M. cookei, was inhibited in Sabouraud's glucose agar media containing extract and crystal (A) of Berberis Koreana Palibin 1 mg/ml.

The mattresses and dust in the bed rooms of nine dermatophytes infected patients and nine domestic animals were examined by the KOH method. Microsporum canis species and Trichophyton mentagrophytes were isolated from cats and rabbits, respectively. The sources of infection of three patients were the M. canis infected cats raised by them and the four other patient's sources of infection were not confirmed. The sites of infection of the nine patients were their heads and those of the domestic animals were their heads and bodies. M. canis species were isolated from the infection sites of three cats and specimens collected by hair brush from the nine domestic animals. T. mentagrophytes species were also isolated from the infection sites of two rabbits. The seven patients had mattresses and bed room dust contaminated with M. canis.

Background: Microsporum canis is a zoonotic disease that can cause dermatophytosis in animals and humans. Objectives: In clinical practice, ketoconazole (KTZ) and other imidazole drugs are commonly used to treat M. canis infection, but its molecular mechanism is not completely understood. The antifungal mechanism of KTZ needs to be studied in detail. Methods: In this study, one strain of fungi was isolated from a canine suffering with clinical dermatosis and confirmed as M. canis by morphological observation and sequencing analysis. The clinically isolated M. canis was treated with KTZ and transcriptome sequencing was performed to identify differentially expressed genes in M. canis exposed to KTZ compared with those unexposed thereto. Results: At half-inhibitory concentration (½MIC), compared with the control group, 453 genes were significantly up-regulated and 326 genes were significantly down-regulated (p < 0.05). Quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction analysis verified the transcriptome results of RNA sequencing. Gene ontology enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis revealed that the 3 pathways of RNA polymerase, steroid biosynthesis, and ribosome biogenesis in eukaryotes are closely related to the antifungal mechanism of KTZ. Conclusions: The results indicated that KTZ may change cell membrane permeability, destroy the cell wall, and inhibit mitosis and transcriptional regulation through CYP51, SQL, ERG6, ATM, ABCB1, SC, KER33, RPA1, and RNP genes in the 3 pathways. This study provides a new theoretical basis for the effective control of M. canis infection and the effect of KTZ on fungi.

This study was carried out to investigate the anti-fungal effect of Pyrethri Flos Boiled Solution (PFBS) from Chrysanthemum Cinerariaefolium Visiani on Microsporum canis, Microsporum gypseum and Trichophyton Mentagrophytes with 0.5 ml, 1ml, 2 ml. In comparative drugs, on Sabouraud's glucose agar medium to 2 ml respectively and PFBS on the rabbit skin lesions, in vivo experiments, were observed. The results obtained were as follows : PFBS slightly suppresed the growth of the fungi in 0.5 ml and markedly it in 1 ml and 2 ml. In comparative drugs, benzylbenzoate represented similar anti-fungal action in 2 ml compared with PFBS. While, salicylic acid and boric acid represented less suppression of growth of the fungi than PFBS in 0.5 ml. The effects of PFBS on the rabbit skin lesions inoculation with dermatophytes was almost normally recorved about Microsporum gypseum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes except Microsporum canis after 8 days.
