Pythium insidiosum is a species of Pythium and a member of the class oomycota. Pythium insidiosum is mainly found in standing water and occasionally soil. Unlike most Pythium species, which are generally pathogens of terrestrial plants, Pythium insidiosum is a pathogen of mammals. It causes pythiosis, mainly in horses, dogs, and humans. It can also cause disease in cats. It is a non-transmissible disease and occurs mainly in tropical climate, endemic to Thailand, affecting mainly humans and horses and in Brazil, affecting mainly horses. Infection can occur in healthy mammals. The pathogen is well-adapted to mammalian body temperature, with an optimum temperature for growth of 34–36 °C (93–97 °F).

  • Pythium insidiosum ist eine Art der Gattung Pythium aus der Familie der Pythiaceae innerhalb der Gruppe der Eipilze. P. insidiosum wird vorrangig in stehenden Gewässern und gelegentlich im Boden gefunden. Anders als die meisten Pythium-Arten, die Pathogene von Landpflanzen sind, tritt P. insidiosum als Pathogen von Säugetieren auf. Es verursacht , hauptsächlich bei Pferden, Hunden und Menschen. Es kann auch eine Krankheit bei Katzen auslösen. Es handelt sich um eine seltene, nicht übertragbare Krankheit, die auch gesunde Tiere befallen kann. Das Pathogen ist gut an die Körpertemperatur der Säuger angepasst, wobei das Optimum für das Wachstum 34 … 36 °C beträgt. (de)

Infection can occur in healthy mammals. The pathogen is well-adapted to mammalian body temperature, with an optimum temperature for growth of 34–36 °C (93–97 °F). The cell walls of Pythium insidiosum are composed of β-glucans and cellulose (compared to the chitin walls of fungi), and their cytoplasmic membranes lack sterols, molecules that are targets of antifungals. For this reason, infection caused by Pythium insidiosum is difficult to treat. (en)
