Fungal-Bacterial Dysbiosis in IBD: Microbial Biomarkers of Disease Activity. [PDF]

Microbiologyopen
This study characterizes bacterial, fungal, and viral communities in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis using intestinal and faecal samples. Distinct microbial signatures and inter‐kingdom interactions were identified, with taxa such as Prevotella, Fusobacterium, and Roseburia linked to disease activity.

Diagnosis of Brachyspira pilosicoli, Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira intermedia in hens and laying hens in the western region of Paraná through bacterial isolation and identification in qPCR [PDF]

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2019
: Bacteria of the genus Brachyspira can cause enteric diseases in poultry causing a decrease in productivity. The occurrence of this disease in chickens has already been verified in countries such as Australia, Italy, and the United States, but in Brazil,

BPP43_05035 is a Brachyspira pilosicoli cell surface adhesin that weakens the integrity of the epithelial barrier during infection [PDF]

Gut Microbes
The anaerobic spirochete Brachyspira causes intestinal spirochetosis, characterized by the intimate attachment of bacterial cells to the colonic mucosa, potentially leading to symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss.

Antimicrobial susceptibility of porcine Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira pilosicoli isolated in Sweden between 1990 and 2010 [PDF]

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2012
Background The anaerobic spirochetes Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira pilosicoli cause diarrheal diseases in pigs. Their fastidious nature has hampered standardization of methods for antimicrobial susceptibility testing.

The complete genome sequence of the pathogenic intestinal spirochete Brachyspira pilosicoli and comparison with other Brachyspira genomes.

PLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundThe anaerobic spirochete Brachyspira pilosicoli colonizes the large intestine of various species of birds and mammals, including humans. It causes "intestinal spirochetosis", a condition characterized by mild colitis, diarrhea and reduced ...

ANTIMICROBIAL SENSITIVITY TEST OF BRACHYSPIRA SPP. ISOLATE FROM SWINE IN TAIWAN

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023
Intro: Brachyspira spp. can induce mucohemorrhagic diarrhea known as swine dysentery (SD) in weaning to finishing pigs. The brachyspira is transmitted via the fecal-oral route and causes massive economic losses due to a slower rate of pig growth.

Development of a real-time PCR for identification of brachyspira species in human colonic biopsies. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Brachyspira species are fastidious anaerobic microorganisms, that infect the colon of various animals. The genus contains both important pathogens of livestock as well as commensals. Two species are known to infect humans: B.

Detection of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae, Lawsonia intracellularis and Brachyspira pilosicoli in feral pigs [PDF]

Veterinary Microbiology, 2009
Feral pigs are recognized as being a potential reservoir of pathogenic microorganisms that can infect domestic pigs and other species. The aim of this study was to investigate whether feral pigs in Western Australia were colonized by the pathogenic enteric bacteria Lawsonia intracellularis, Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and/or Brachyspira pilosicoli.

Brachyspira Species and Gastroenteritis in Humans [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2013
ABSTRACT Brachyspira species have been implicated as a potential cause of gastroenteritis in humans; this is, however, controversial. In 733 gastroenteritis cases and 464 controls, we found 29 samples positive for Brachyspira species (2.3% of cases and 2.6% of controls; P
