Estrogen and bacterial infection. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Immunol
Gender differences exist in the susceptibility, incidence, progression, and prognosis of bacterial infections in males and females, influenced by various factors including lifestyle and habits. Multiple reports have indicated that estrogen plays a crucial immunomodulatory role in many pathogenic microbial infections, highlighting a complex relationship

Analysis of Microbial Communities: An Emerging Tool in Forensic Sciences

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
The objective of forensic sciences is to find clues in a crime scene in order to reconstruct the scenario. Classical samples include DNA or fingerprints, but both have inherent limitations and can be uninformative.

WGS based analysis of acquired antimicrobial resistance in human and non-human Acinetobacter baumannii isolates from a German perspective

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2021
Background Acinetobacter baumannii ability to develop and acquire resistance makes it one of the most critical nosocomial pathogens globally. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was applied to identify the acquired or mutational variants of antimicrobial ...

Bacterial Infections in Cirrhosis [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2004
Hospitalized patients with cirrhosis are at increased risk of developing bacterial infections, the most common being spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) and urinary tract infections. Independent predictors of the development of bacterial infections in hospitalized cirrhotic patients are poor liver synthetic function and admission for ...

Bacterial Infections

open access: yesBrain Pathology, 1997
The organisms that produce bacterial infections of the nervous system in tropical regions are similar to those existing in the rest of the world. However, because of poor socio‐economic conditions in the former areas, preventing the implementation of appropriate prophylactic and therapeutic measures, the incidence and course of these diseases may vary ...

Epigenetics and Bacterial Infections [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2012
Epigenetic mechanisms regulate expression of the genome to generate various cell types during development or orchestrate cellular responses to external stimuli. Recent studies highlight that bacteria can affect the chromatin structure and transcriptional program of host cells by influencing diverse epigenetic factors (i.e., histone modifications, DNA ...
