Expanding the prevalence of -associated skin infection by transmission from humans to animals.

Infection with has been considered an important medical issue in recent times due to the rapid ability of this fungus to develop resistance to different antifungals and its widespread distribution across multiple countries. However, increasing cases of antifungal-resistant infections induce changes in the biological activity of fungi, enabling certain dermatophytes such as to infect both animals and humans. This behaviour has certainly had adverse consequences after expanding the host variety of resistant . The virulence of is predicted to increase, resulting in more difficult treatment for both human and animal infections.
