Circulating bacterial-derived DNA fragment level is a strong predictor of cardiovascular disease in peritoneal dialysis patients. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Circulating bacterial DNA fragment is related to systemic inflammatory state in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. We hypothesize that plasma bacterial DNA level predicts cardiovascular events in new PD patients.We measured plasma bacterial DNA level in ...

Screening for Highly Transduced Genes in Staphylococcus aureus Revealed Both Lateral and Specialized Transduction

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Bacteriophage-mediated transduction of bacterial DNA is a major route of horizontal gene transfer in the human pathogen, Staphylococcus aureus. Transduction involves the packaging of bacterial DNA by viruses and enables the transmission of virulence and ...

Bacterial DNA is present in the fetal intestine and overlaps with that in the placenta in mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Bacterial DNA has been reported in the placenta and amniotic fluid by several independent groups of investigators. However, it's taxonomic overlap with fetal and maternal bacterial DNA in different sites has been poorly characterized. Here, we determined
