Molecular diagnosis of Actinomadura madurae infection by 16S rRNA deep sequencing. [PDF]
J Clin Microbiol, 2013 ABSTRACT Next-generation DNA sequencing can be used to catalog individual organisms within complex, polymicrobial specimens. Here, we utilized deep sequencing of 16S rRNA to implicate Actinomadura madurae as the cause of mycetoma in a diabetic patient when culture and conventional molecular methods were ...

In Vitro and In Vivo Wide-Spectrum Dual Antimycetomal Activity of Eight Essential Oils Coupled with Chemical Composition and Metabolomic Profiling [PDF]
Microbiology ResearchMycetoma, a neglected infection of subcutaneous tissues, poses a significant health burden, especially in tropical regions. It is caused by fungal (eumycetoma) and bacterial (actinomycetoma) pathogens, with current treatments often providing ...

Mycetoma: experience of 482 cases in a single center in Mexico. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014 Mycetoma is a chronic granulomatous disease. It is classified into eumycetoma caused by fungi and actinomycetoma due to filamentous actinomycetes. Mycetoma can be found in geographic areas in close proximity to the Tropic of Cancer.

Draft Genome Sequence of Actinomadura madurae LIID-AJ290, Isolated from a Human Mycetoma Case. [PDF]
Genome Announc, 2014 ABSTRACT Here we present the draft genome sequence of a member of the Thermomonosporaceae , Actinomadura madurae LIID-AJ290, isolated from a human case of mycetoma. The assembly contains 10,308,866 bp. This is to our knowledge the first reported genome of a human-pathogenic

In vitro activities of new quinolones and oxazolidinones against Actinomadura madurae. [PDF]
Antimicrob Agents Chemother, 2004 ABSTRACT In this work, we studied the in vitro sensitivity of 24 strains of Actinomadura madurae to a new oxazolidinone (DA-7867), gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin, and garenoxacin by using a broth microdilution method. We observed that the A.

Nonmycetomic Actinomadura madurae infection in a patient with AIDS. [PDF]
J Clin Microbiol, 1992 Actinomadura madurae is an aerobic actinomycete which is best known worldwide as the cause of actinomycotic mycetomas. It has not previously been reported to have caused invasive pulmonary or disseminated infection in humans. We describe an AIDS patient with opportunistic A. madurae-induced pneumonia and bacteremia. The isolate from the patient's blood

Mycetoma caused by Actinomadura (Streptomyces) madurae [PDF]
South African Medical Journal, 2019 The actinomycete Actinomadura madurae has been isolated for the first time in South Africa from a case of mycetoma pedis. A. madurae and A. pelletieri are two closely related though separate pathogens which were formerly regarded as species of Nocardia and Streptomyces, and are now placed in a newly created genus Actinomadura.
