An Investigation into the Etiological Agents of Swine Dysentery in Australian Pig Herds. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Swine dysentery (SD) is a mucohemorrhagic colitis, classically seen in grower/finisher pigs and caused by infection with the anaerobic intestinal spirochete Brachyspira hyodysenteriae.

Phylogenetic diversity, antimicrobial susceptibility and virulence gene profiles of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae isolates from pigs in Germany. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Swine dysentery (SD) is an economically important diarrheal disease in pigs caused by different strongly hemolytic Brachyspira (B.) species, such as B. hyodysenteriae, B. suanatina and B. hampsonii.

Variation in hemolytic activity of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae strains from pigs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Brachyspira hyodysenteriae is the primary cause of swine dysentery, which is responsible for major economic losses to the pig industry worldwide. The hemolytic activity of 10 B.

Infection of porcine colon explants with “Brachyspira hampsonii” leads to increased epithelial necrosis and catarrhal exudate [PDF]

open access: yesPathogens and Disease, 2017
Mucohemorrhagic diarrhea in pigs caused by Brachyspira spp. has a global distribution, and an economic impact on affected farms due to poor performance of animals. Demonstrations that "Brachyspira hampsonii" is pathogenic have been achieved using in vivo animal models, but a critical knowledge gap exists regarding the pathogenic mechanisms employed by ...

Comparison of culture, polymerase chain reaction, and fluorescent in situ hybridization for detection of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and “Brachyspira hampsonii” in pig feces [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2014
Swine dysentery is characterized by mucohemorrhagic diarrhea and can occur following infection by Brachyspira hyodysenteriae or “ Brachyspira hampsonii ”. A definitive diagnosis is often based on the isolation of strongly beta-hemolytic spirochetes from selective culture or by the application of species-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays ...

Metabonomics-based analysis of Brachyspira pilosicoli's response to tiamulin reveals metabolic activity despite significant growth inhibition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Pathogenic anaerobes Brachyspira spp. are responsible for an increasing number of Intestinal Spirochaetosis (IS) cases in livestock against which few approved treatments are available.

The levels of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae binding to porcine colonic mucins differ between individuals, and binding is increased to mucins from infected pigs with de novo MUC5AC synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Brachyspira hyodysenteriae colonizes the pig colon, resulting in mucohemorrhagic diarrhea and growth retardation. Fecal mucus is a characteristic feature of swine dysentery; therefore, we investigated how the mucin environment changes in the colon during

Distribution, genetic heterogeneity, and antimicrobial susceptibility of Brachyspira pilosicoli in Swiss pig herds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Brachyspira (B.) pilosicoli is a bacterium causing porcine intestinal spirochaetosis, a disease characterized by diarrhoea and depressed growth rates especially in nursery and fattening pigs. Knowledge of the epidemiology and antimicrobial susceptibility

A global analysis of peptide fragmentation variability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Understanding the fragmentation process in MS/MS experiments is vital when trying to validate the results of such experiments, and one way of improving our understanding is to analyze existing data.

Mutational analysis of TlyA from Brachyspira hampsonii reveals two key residues conserved in pathogenic bacteria responsible for oligomerization and hemolytic activity

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2022
TlyA proteins are expressed in a variety of pathogenic bacteria and possess dual hemolytic and ribosomal RNA methyltransferase functions. While the mechanism of TlyA mediated rRNA methylation is well understood, relatively little is known about the mechanism of TlyA induced hemolysis.TlyA protein from the pig pathogen Brachyspira hampsonii was ...
