Outer membrane vesicles secreted by Bacteroides fragilis inhibit CFTR chloride secretion by human colon organoids [PDF]
The goals of this study were to develop a model to study host-pathogen interactions in primary human colon organoids and to test the hypothesis that Bacteroides fragilis toxin (BFT-2) secreted in outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) modulates mucosal immunity ...

Neuraminidase in Bacteroides fragilis [PDF]
A neuraminidase from Bacteroides fragilis was purified 542-fold by isoelectric focusing, adsorption chromatography on Affi-Gel 202, and gel filtration chromatography on Sephadex G-200. On isoelectric focusing the neuraminidase was resolved into three differently charged fractions with pI values of 6.8, 7.1, and 7.4.

Bacteroides fragilis meningitis [PDF]
A fatal case of pyogenic meningitis due to Bacteroides fragilis in a 6-year-old boy is reported. The need for processing cerebrospinal fluid of patients with underlying conditions such as chronic otitis media for recovery of both aerobes and anaerobes is discussed.
