Antimicrobial Resistance in Agriculture [PDF]

mBio, 2016
ABSTRACT In this article, the current knowledge and knowledge gaps in the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in livestock and plants and importance in terms of animal and human health are discussed. Some recommendations are provided for generation of the data required in order to develop risk assessments for AMR within ...

Antimicrobial Resistance of and Genomic Insights into Pasteurella multocida Strains Isolated from Australian Pigs

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Infection with Pasteurella multocida represents a significant economic threat to Australian pig producers, yet our knowledge of its antimicrobial susceptibilities is lagging, and genomic characterization of P.

Modified genome comparison method: a new approach for identification of specific targets in molecular diagnostic tests using Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex as an example

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2018
Background The first step of designing any genome-based molecular diagnostic test is to find a specific target sequence. The modified genome comparison method is one of the easiest and most comprehensive ways to achieve this goal. In this study, we aimed

Antimicrobial resistance in nephrology [PDF]

Nature Reviews Nephrology, 2019
The prevalence of antimicrobial resistance among many common bacterial pathogens is increasing. The emergence and global dissemination of these antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) is fuelled by antibiotic selection pressure, inter-organism transmission of resistance determinants, suboptimal infection prevention practices and increasing ease and ...

Serotyping of sub-Saharan Africa Salmonella strains isolated from poultry feces using multiplex PCR and whole genome sequencing

BMC Microbiology, 2021
Background Salmonella enterica remains a leading cause of food-borne diseases worldwide. Serotype information is important in food safety and public health activities to reduce the burden of salmonellosis.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

The drivers of antibiotic use and misuse: the development and investigation of a theory driven community measure

BMC Public Health, 2019
Background Antimicrobial resistance is a global public health concern, with extensive associated health and economic implications. Actions to slow and contain the development of resistance are imperative.

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Antimicrobial Resistance in the Environment [PDF]

Water Environment Research, 2016
This review summarizes selected publications from 2017 highlighting the occurrence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes in the environment with emphasis on the aquatic environment. The review also covers different treatment technologies being developed for AMR genes as an environmental contaminant. The progress made in the area of AMR gene databases

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
