Constitutive melanin in the cell wall of the etiologic agent of Lobo's disease.

V B Taborda1, P R Taborda, M R McGinnis.   

Abstract

Lobo's disease is a chronic granulomatous disease caused by the obligate pathogenic fungus, whose cell walls contain constitutive melanin. In contrast, melanin does not occur in the cell walls of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis when stained by the Fontana-Masson stain.
