The Mechanisms of Disease Caused by Acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Acinetobacter baumannii is a Gram negative opportunistic pathogen that has demonstrated a significant insurgence in the prevalence of infections over recent decades. With only a limited number of "traditional" virulence factors, the mechanisms underlying the success of this pathogen remain of great interest.

Exploring the Roles of Tuna‐Associated Acinetobacter sp. YFT067: Implications for Host Health and Metabolism

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This study firstly isolated a tuna‐derived gut probiotic Acinetobacter seifertii YFT067. Dietary administration of YFT067 played significant roles in promoting growth performance, SCFAs production, lipid absorption, and metabolism of the host, indicating YFT067 as a promising probiotic candidate for enhancing tuna aquaculture productivity through ...

Staring at the cold sun: blue light regulation is distributed within the genus Acinetobacter. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
We previously showed that the opportunistic nosocomial pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii is able to sense and respond to light via BlsA, a BLUF (Blue-Light-sensing Using FAD)-domain photoreceptor protein.

Acinetobacter baumannii can use multiple siderophores for iron acquisition, but only acinetobactin is required for virulence

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2020
Acinetobacter baumannii is an emerging pathogen that poses a global health threat due to a lack of therapeutic options for treating drug-resistant strains. In addition to acquiring resistance to last-resort antibiotics, the success of A.

The transmission of nosocomial pathogens in an intensive care unit: a space–time clustering and structural equation modelling approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We investigated the incidence of cases of nosocomial pathogens and risk factors in an intensive treatment unit ward to determine if the number of cases is dependent on location of patients and the colonization/infection history of the ward.

A Promising Antibacterial Inhibition of Propolis Extracts Against Carbapenem‐Resistant Bacteria Isolated From Clinical Samples

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing inadequacy of antibiotics against multidrug‐resistant pathogens is a growing concern. In this study, the antibacterial activity of propolis extracts with different phenolic profiles against carbapenem‐resistant clinical isolates was investigated.
