Popis: | Patients with diabetes are considered a high-risk group involved with cerebral mucormycosis (CM). Due to the potential of Mucorales to invade sinuses and its rapid progression into orbit and retro-orbital areas and even brain, in most cases, CM is fatal in patients with diabetes. In the last few decades, mucormycosis and background conditions responsible for the development of its infections have received a great deal of attention. Dysfunction of innate and adaptive immune system, the increased amount of available nutrition, expression of host factors, and free iron level in plasma in diabetic ketoacidosis are among the topics that have been mostly taken into account so far. Therefore, it is important to clarify the molecular mechanisms that let the Mucorales to involve the patients with diabetes, which even at early stages of diagnosis and treatment, there is minimum chance to control the disease. |
