Trichophytonmentagrophytesis increasingly considered to be a public health hazard because it causes the most severe manifestations of dermatophytosis. In this study, we performed a series of studies to determine the pathogenicity of theT. mentagrophytescomplex. We show that theT. mentagrophytescomplex interacts with keratinocytes through pattern-recognition receptors‒MAPK/noncanonical NF-κB pathways and that the hyphal form ofT. mentagrophytesis responsible for the increased inflammatory responses in keratinocytes. Moreover, SN-38 is likely a toxin ofT. mentagrophytesthat induces apoptosis in keratinocytes both in vivo and in vitro. Our results explain the severe pathogenicity and destructiveness ofT. mentagrophytesobserved in the clinic and pave the way for designing novel toxin-directed therapies to improve patient outcomes.
