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

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.

Attraction of Brachyspira pilosicoli to mucin [PDF]

Microbiology, 2010
The anaerobic intestinal spirochaete Brachyspira pilosicoli colonizes the large intestine of various species, including humans. In the colon this spirochaete can penetrate the overlying mucus layer, attach by one cell end to the underlying enterocytes, and initiate localized colitis and diarrhoea.
