Scedosporium Prolificans
''Lomentospora prolificans'' is an emerging opportunistic fungal pathogen that causes a wide variety of infections in immunologically normal and immunosuppressed people and animals. It is resistant to most antifungal drugs and infections are often fatal. Drugs targeting the Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (quinone), Class II dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) proteins of ''L. prolificans'', ''Scedosporium'', ''Aspergillus'' and other rare moulds are the basis for at least one new therapy, Olorofim, which is currently in phase 2b clinical trials and has received breakthrough status by FDA. For information on all DHODH proteins, please see Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase. History The genus ''Lomentospora'' was erected by G. Hennebert and B.G. Desai in 1974 to accommodate a culture obtained from greenhouse soil originating from a forest in Belgium. The fungus, which they named ''Lomentospora prolificans'', was thought incorrectly to be related to the genus ''Beauveria'' - a group of insec ...

Scedosporiosis
Scedosporiosis is the general name for any mycosis - i.e., fungal infection - caused by a fungus from the genus Scedosporium. Current population-based studies suggest ''Scedosporium prolificans'' (also known and recently more commonly referred to as ''Lomentospora prolificans'') and ''Scedosporium apiospermum'' to be among the most common infecting agents from the genus, although infections caused by other members thereof are not unheard of. The latter is an asexual form (anamorph) of another fungus, '' Pseudallescheria boydii''. The former is a “black yeast” (aka dematiaceous fungus), currently not characterized as well, although both of them have been described as saprophytes. The fungi of this genus are more and more recognized as significant human pathogens. ''S. apiospermum'' is described as an emerging and even an “underrated” opportunistic pathogen. It was reported in a 2003 US study that Scedosporiosis had been associated with 25% of all non-''Aspergillus'' fungal ...

Scedosporium Apiospermum
''Pseudallescheria boydii'' is a species of fungus classified in the Ascomycota. It is associated with some forms of eumycetoma/ maduromycosis and is the causative agent of pseudallescheriasis. Typically found in stagnant and polluted water, it has been implicated in the infection of immunocompromised and near-drowned pneumonia patients. Treatment of infections with ''P. boydii'' is complicated by resistance to many of the standard antifungal agents normally used to treat infections by filamentous fungi. ''Pseudallescheria boydii'' fungal infection was the cause of death in three athletes submerged in the Yarkon River after a bridge collapsed during the 1997 Maccabiah Games. Taxonomy The fungus was originally described by American mycologist Cornelius Lott Shear in 1922 as a species of '' Allescheria''. Shear obtained cultures from a patient of the Medical Department of the University of Texas. The microbe was apparently associated with a penetrating thorn the patient ...
