L‐EasyARG: A long‐read metagenomics tool for rapid antibiotic‐resistance‐gene profiling

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
L‐EasyARG is a pipeline for long‐read metagenomic profiling of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and their genetic context. It integrates ARG identification, plasmid and mobile genetic element (MGE) detection, taxonomic classification, and further identifies ARGs carried by human bacterial pathogens (HBPs) defined in the WHO and ESKAPE pathogen lists.

Sexual dimorphism in hormone–gut microbiome associations across reproductive states in wild giant pandas

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Gut microbiota–host endocrine interactions in wild mammals remain poorly understood. Giant pandas experience seasonal dietary shifts and constrained annual reproduction, offering an ideal model to investigate microbiome–endocrine coupling. We integrated fecal hormone profiling, microsatellite‐based individual identification, and gut microbiome ...

A Multicenter Study of Risk Factors and Outcome of Hospitalized Patients with Infections Due to Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter Baumannii

, 2011
Risk factors and outcome in patients who acquire nosocomial infections due to carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) are rarely investigated.

Host‐specific and deterministic microbiome assembly in major coleopteran stored‐grain pests

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Dual DNA‐ and RNA‐based sequencing profiled the microbiomes of five major coleopteran stored‐grain pests and their wheat flour substrate. The microbiomes differed significantly among hosts and from flour, yet 11 core bacterial and 9 core fungal taxa were shared across hosts. RNA data revealed host‐specific active microbiota.

Quantitative Proteomics to study Carbapenem Resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogen causing pneumonia, respiratory infections and urinary tract infections. The prevalence of this lethal pathogen increases gradually in the clinical setup where it can grow on artificial surfaces ...

New Treatment Options against Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Infections

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2018
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is a perilous nosocomial pathogen causing substantial morbidity and mortality. Current treatment options for CRAB are limited and suffer from pharmacokinetic limitations, such as high toxicity and low ...

Tiny carriers, big impact: How Fusobacterium nucleatum extracellular vesicles drive oral diseases and beyond

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This review explores how Fusobacterium nucleatum extracellular vesicles drive local oral diseases and distal pathologies via sophisticated cross‐compartment cross talk. It highlights the transformative potential of these “tiny carriers” as next‐generation molecular intermediaries for advanced health monitoring and innovative bio‐interventions by ...

Duplex Recombinase Polymerase Amplification‐Lateral Flow Assay for Rapid Visual Detection of Critical Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae From Positive Blood Cultures

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study developed a pair of duplex RPA‐LFA assays for the simultaneous detection of critical resistance genes, blaCTX‐M/mcr‐1 and blaoxa‐48‐like/blaNDM, from hemoculture samples. Under optimized conditions, duplex RPA was performed at 37°C–38°C for 25 min, followed by LFA for 10–15 min.
