Abstract

The rise of emerging fungal pathogens suggests a need for global surveillance and a deeper understanding of drug resistance and modes of transmission. In a recent Cell article, Er et al.¹ investigated an understudied fungal pathogen, Trichophyton concentricum, by analyzing the skin microbiota of Indigenous peninsular Malaysians with tinea imbricata.

发现马来西亚农村地区的真菌病原体和皮肤微生物群

新出现的真菌病原体的增加表明需要进行全球监测，并对耐药性和传播方式有更深入的了解。在《细胞》杂志最近的一篇文章中，Er等人研究了一种未被充分研究的真菌病原体——集中毛癣菌（Trichophyton concentricum），通过分析马来西亚半岛土著居民的毛癣皮肤微生物群。

期刊介绍： Cell Host & Microbe is a scientific journal that was launched in March 2007. The journal aims to provide a platform for scientists to exchange ideas and concepts related to the study of microbes and their interaction with host organisms at a molecular, cellular, and immune level. It publishes novel findings on a wide range of microorganisms including bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses. The journal focuses on the interface between the microbe and its host, whether the host is a vertebrate, invertebrate, or plant, and whether the microbe is pathogenic, non-pathogenic, or commensal. The integrated study of microbes and their interactions with each other, their host, and the cellular environment they inhabit is a unifying theme of the journal. The published work in Cell Host & Microbe is expected to be of exceptional significance within its field and also of interest to researchers in other areas. In addition to primary research articles, the journal features expert analysis, commentary, and reviews on current topics of interest in the field.
