Title A name given to the resource Malassezia: Estado del conocimiento y perspectivas en su estudio Malassezia: Current knowledge and study perspectives Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Gustavo E. Giusiano Description An account of the resource El estudio del género Malassezia se mantuvo postergado durante años debido a sus estrictos requerimientos nutricionales y su variabilidad morfológica. La posibilidad de su aislamiento y la aplicación de métodos moleculares condujeron a la revisión taxonómica del género y a la renovación en el interés por su importancia clínica. Actualmente se conocen 11 especies, 10 lipofílicas, y dado que muchas de ellas tienen características morfológicas, fisiológicas y bioquímicas similares, las técnicas convencionales no resultan satisfactorias para diferenciarlas. Actualmente, los métodos moleculares prometen una mejor diferenciación y permiten avanzar en el conocimiento de la ecología y epidemiología de este género. Se han observado notables variaciones en la sensibilidad antifúngica de algunas especies, aunque no existe un método estandarizado para evaluar la relevancia clínica. Si bien poco se conoce sobre la bioquímica de estas levaduras, se ha observado que las enzimas que producen favorecen la invasión de los tejidos del hospedador, por lo que serían un importante factor de virulencia. Malassezia ha sido reconocido como comensal de piel humana y animal, pero su implicancia en procesos patológicos, que incluyen desde afecciones cutáneas hasta infecciones sistémicas, ha centrado la atención de recientes investigaciones en determinar el verdadero rol patogénico de estas levaduras.The study of Malassezia has been postponed for many years due to its nutritional requirements and its morphological variability. Molecular biology methods led to a taxonomic revision of this genus and to a new interest for its clinical importance. Nowadays, 11 Malassezia species are known, 10 are lipophilic, having similar morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics, therefore, conventional techniques are not useful to differentiating them. Molecular methods are an accurate tool in the identification and they lead to a better knowledge of the ecology and epidemiology of this genus. Noteworthy antifungal susceptibility variations have been observed in some species, although there is not a standard method for these yeasts. There are few data about their biochemical characteristics, and the enzymes they produce might be important virulence factors, favouring host tissue invasion. Malassezia has been recognised as a member of the normal human and animal skin. Its implication in pathologic processes, including skin diseases to systemic infections, is the main issue in current investigations in order to determine the real pathogenic role of these yeasts.
